PARTENAIRE
The Emmaus Community of Palermo is part of the global Emmaus movement, which aims to combat poverty and social exclusion through the principles of work, sharing and mutual aid. The Emmaus Community of Palermo was founded in October 2015, following an international volunteer camp that allowed the opening of the solidarity market in the city.Since its foundation, Emmaus Palermo has gathered many volunteers who support the typical work of collecting and reselling used goods, carry out testimonies and educational activities in schools to raise awareness and participation in the fight against poverty and injustice, and promote the culture of volunteerism. Every summer, Emmaus Italy and Emmaus Palermo organise international volunteer summer camps, in collaboration with local associations and young people from all over the world.Emmaus runs the community in a self-managed and self-financing way, through the sale of second-hand goods and the Solidarity Flea Market, and with the help of local volunteers.
