The City of Logan is a place defined by diversity, resilience, and community.

With more than 392,000 residents and over 230 cultures represented, it is a region full of opportunity, but also one facing complex challenges, including social isolation, financial hardship, and housing pressures.

And yet, across Logan, something remarkable is happening.

A Story Bigger Than Numbers

The NAYBA Impact Audit has captured a powerful snapshot of the contribution of faith-based organisations across the city and the results are significant.

135 organisations contributed to the audit
141 community services are actively meeting local needs
263,494 people were supported in the past year
Over $32.6 million in social value is contributed annually

These figures represent more than data points.They represent people, neighbours, being seen, supported, and cared for.

Meeting Real Needs in Real Ways

Across Logan, faith communities are stepping into some of the city’s most pressing challenges.

From addressing loneliness and mental health, to providing food relief, youth support, and community connection, these services are meeting people where they are — often quietly and without recognition.

What stands out is not just the scale of the work, but the heart behind it.

A Collective Effort

This impact is not the work of a single organisation.

It is the result of collaboration across churches, faith groups, community organisations, and local partners, working together toward a shared vision: a city where every person belongs.

As highlighted in the report, this is a story of generosity, compassion, and unity. Values lived out daily across Logan’s neighbourhoods.
