Interstate Convert Resources
Over the years, Benevolence has worked with a number of organisations supporting converts and facilitating conversion to Islam, both in Victoria and elsewhere. If you are based outside of Victoria and would like to learn more about Islam and conversion, we encourage you to contact Benevolence to meet online, or to check out these interstate organisations if you want to get in touch with someone local. We also reccomend you look into these organisations for convert meet-ups and Islamic events in your area.
