Mission Statement

Heart’s Home is an in­ter­na­tion­al non-prof­it Catholic or­ga­ni­za­tion. Through the com­mit­ments of vol­un­teers all around the world, it spreads a Culture of Compassion as an an­swer to the uni­ver­sal re­al­i­ty of Suffering.

• Through friendship, Heart’s Home volunteers bring consolation to the most wounded people in the world, starting with the children. They visit them and welcome them every afternoon in their Missionary houses,the Heart’s Homes, located in deprived areas.

• Heart’s Home works all around the world to affirm the intrinsic value of every human being through various initiatives in the corporate, scientific and artistic world. Among other activities and for this purpose it organizes discussions, retreats, conferences and seminars.

In 2005, Heart’s Home was grant­ed the spe­cial con­sul­ta­tive sta­tus with­in the United Nations (ECOSOC)[FR], on the ba­sis of its work to pro­mote hu­man dig­ni­ty and of its con­tri­bu­tion to the Millenium Development Goals. Since then, we have opened a Heart’s Home in Geneva (Switzerland) to par­tic­i­pate in the var­i­ous com­mit­tees deal­ing with hu­man dig­ni­ty.

To lead this Mission, Heart’s Home bas­es its work on the three fol­low­ing pi­lars: Prayer-life, Community and Compassion.
