EMMAUS

We are a Ukrainian NGO from Kharkiv that was founded in 2011 to help people leaving orphanages and young people with disabilities. We support them in the discovery of their value and of their place in the world. 

After the outbreak of the war in Ukraine, we started helping refugees to leave Ukraine and come to Italy, and to settle in their new country.

Currently, the Emmaus NGO works both in Ukraine and in Italy, where in October 2022 a support-association was founded: Associazione Amici di Emmaus.
