Information for Community Members
Dear Community Members,
Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu
Welcome to the “Geelong Memorial Park Graveyard Project” — a joint initiative by VBCF & Laikam Charity.
We all know approximate timing of when a child will be born, but we do not know when the last breath of life would be. Sudden loss of family members can put families into financial stress. In many cases, loved ones remain waiting while funds are arranged for burial. As Muslims, it is our duty to bury our fellow Muslim brothers and sisters with full respect, without delay, irrespective of financial conditions.
Alhamdulillah, by the mercy of Allah (SWT), Laikam Charity has made an arrangement with Geelong Cemeteries Trust (GCT) for the greater interest of the Muslim community and made funeral services more affordable by negotiating the fixed grave price of $2,455 with easy instalment payments.
To secure the Muslim Designated Area with fixed current pricing, GCT requires a minimum number of booking confirmations. We need Muslim Brothers and Sisters to come forward and join this noble project. Your active participation will make this initiative successful.
IMPORTANT: the price will be increased after 01st of July 2026. We anticipate that price may be increase by $1000/- per grave after 1st of July 2026. So please ack quickly and book it within 25th June 2026 to avail the current price.
