Emmaus provides a home and meaningful work for as long as someone needs it.

You can make a difference by donating, volunteering or visiting our shops.

In their own words...

There is never any one reason why a person can become homeless, and each person's story is unique to them. We encourage and support individuals to share their stories to empower others and to show that with the right support, anything can be overcome. Our staff and volunteers are also encouraged to share their stories.
