Homeless

Country / Region

Taiwan

We aim to create a warm and secure refuge for the homeless—more than just a shelter, but a place where they can gradually regain stability and independence. Here, they participate in simple labor alongside staff members in exchange for the right to use the space, helping them rebuild a sense of routine and self-sufficiency. This process not only offers them a safe environment to rest but also allows them to restore confidence and accumulate the strength needed to move forward.



This space is not merely a temporary stop but a transition point toward a more stable life. Through interactions with society, their efforts are recognized, and their value is acknowledged, gradually breaking down misconceptions and fostering greater understanding and support.



We believe that everyone deserves a fresh start. This is more than just a place of refuge—it is a stepping stone toward a future filled with dignity, stability, and hope.
