The project
SolidarityInsertion
Created in 2020 by committed entrepreneurs, Bureaux du Cœur develops the use of business premises as individual emergency accommodation for people in precarious circumstances, at night and weekends. The aim? To host a person for 3 to 6 months to help them integrate into society.

Solution
Les Bureaux du Coeur is a bridge between these two realities: the association ensures that offices are offices during the day and, at night and weekends, a place of welcome for a person in a street situation, who we call a "guest.e".
The term guest is not chosen at random. The host company will welcome the guest and provide a small kitchen, a shower and a bed, which could be in a meeting room, an office or even a siesta room. Each case is specific and everything is possible.

The money will be used for
Donations will enable us to recruit permanent staff to canvass new host companies, finance any fittings and furnishings at hosts' homes, the guarantee fund in the event of damage at one of the hosts' homes, welcome kits (bedding, kitchen items, etc.) offered to guests and the several support programs set up on a case-by-case basis.
By donating to the Bureaux du Cœur, you enable them to:
- set up new reception facilities;
- support their guests as best they can in their social reintegration;
- support a world with less inequality;
- pass on a little (or even a lot) of love to people who really need it.
