Anna’s House

118 Hadaewon-dong, Jungian-gu Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do

A centre which welcomes the homeless, elderly, jobless and children from the street. Fr Vincenzo and his team of dedicated staff and volunteers feed up to 550 people each day and last year served 83,880 evening meals.

They take a holistic approach to helping those in need by meeting basic needs (food, health, clothing) but also provide counseling, educational programmes and run small group homes. Over 70% of those who use the centre are homeless but Anna’s House aims to give people the opportunity to overcome their disabilities and build a new life.
