A Community of Support

This past Sunday, we held our Annual Benefit on the Emmaus House campus. We had a lot to celebrate: it was the first benefit we’ve hosted since the start of the pandemic, we honored a new recipient for the Ethel Mae Mathews Courage and Character Award, and the event took place in our new building.

This year also marks Emmaus House’s 55th anniversary. What began as a collaborative effort between a priest, two nuns, and a seminary student, has grown into a vital institution for Peoplestown and surrounding areas. One of the reasons for this growth is that we don’t just serve the community, we are a part of the community.

None of our work would be possible without the network of volunteers and supporters who invest their time and resources into lifting up the families and neighbors we serve.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
