International solidarity

Access to water a right for everyone Emmaus International acts logoEmmaus Brighton & Hove is also a member of Emmaus International, paying an annual subscription of 1.5% of our annual shop takings to finance the general operating of the international movement both in terms of its statutory meetings and to enable it to organise, coordinate, develop and communicate the Movement's political and solidarity commitments.

Solidarity Day Sale
We always hold at least one “solidarity day sale” each year and donate the proceeds from the shop sales to Emmaus International to finance the solidarity projects presented by the Emmaus regions in Africa, Asia, America and Europe as well as certain other solidarity commitments such as the regional solidarity funds, the emergency funds, the fund for sending containers, and to support the international Movement's collective priority programmes (access to water, healthcare, education, migrants' rights and the ethical fund).

Our 2009 solidarity day sale raised £1,800

The Paris Salon
Every year Emmaus France hosts a ‘Salon’ where Communities from all over Europe come together with lorries of donated goods to be sold in aid of the developing world and international solidarity.  Emmaus Brighton and Hove sends a consignment of very British things to sell each year. Our collections of teapots and cups and saucers are always a favorite purchase! The donation of goods from our Community normally raises well over £500 each year.
