Raising money for

Emmaus

Charity Registration No. 1064470

Emmaus tackles the problems of homelessness through a network of self-supporting Communities, where people are offered a home, work and a sense of belonging. Emmaus residents (or "Companions" as they are known), each have a room of their own and work together, refurbishing and selling donated goods. Each Emmaus Community aims to become self-sufficient through raising income in this way. In an atmosphere of practical support, Companions have an opportunity to gain new skills and regain their self-respect while working to support other people in greater need. Emmaus UK is the national charity which supports existing Communities and assists the network of Groups which are working to develop new projects.

My story

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page. We will be running the London Marathon this year (our first and last time) !! Our run is in support of a wonderful charity - Emmaus. The community work that Emmaus does to address the issue of homelessness is unique as noted. Given the historic economic events over the past many months, now, more than ever, it's important for those who can to reach out to those in need. Any donation that you are able to make would be greatly appreciated ! Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It's also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Emmaus gets your money faster and, if you're a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation. So please sponsor us now! Many thanks, Annemarie and Don
