Having a safe place to live is a fundamental right and the starting point for rebuilding one’s life. For years, our organisation has supported people experiencing homelessness, a crisis that is always, at the same time, a housing crisis. People moving on from homelessness are often offered an empty apartment - without furniture, a kitchen, a bed or the essentials needed for everyday life. A new address is only the beginning. It is a furnished home that provides a sense of security, dignity and belonging.

Because a home is so much more than four walls. It is a space of safety, privacy and dignity. It is a place where children can do their homework at their own table and parents can finally take a breath.

We believe that no one should have to start from scratch, especially after having lost everything once before.

With your support, we can turn keys into homes, and homes into new and better futures.

That is why we are organising a charity auction, with all proceeds going towards furnishing and equipping ‘starter homes’ - so that individuals and families can truly begin a new chapter in their lives.
