Our Mission

Our mission is to provide rapid, straightforward, and direct assistance to people experiencing homelessness. We distribute food and hygiene supplies, and fund temporary, safe places to sleep. We offer this support directly on the streets, ensuring we reach even those who might not seek help themselves. Through monthly outreach initiatives, our goal is to provide hope and support to individuals in difficult circumstances.

In the long term, we aim to go beyond alleviating acute hardship by creating sustainable prospects. We support individuals experiencing homelessness on their journey back to a self-determined life. To this end, we seek to foster opportunities for reintegration, specifically by promoting and providing access to employment, as we view having one's own income as the key to successful reintegration (Marshall et al., 2022; Munthe-Kaas et al., 2018).
