Solution
Emmaüs Défi is an association with a social integration project whose main activity is the collection, sorting and recycling of donated objects. Its mission is to help people in very precarious situations to find a lasting way out of this situation through these activities.
The association is founded on these 3 principles: everyone can work, access to a job is an effective means of breaking the spiral of exclusion, and commitment to others is a source of self-esteem.
The only requirement to be hired in the integration worksite is the desire to work and to be accompanied. Access to a job that adapts to the individual, complemented by support for the person, is the essential lever of the action.

A contagious smile!
🌟 Since last September, Zamfira has been lighting up the textile sorting center at the Césure ressourcerie as an employee on a vocational integration program with Emmaüs Campüs. Recently, she was able to move into permanent accommodation.
Zamfira is the embodiment of joie de vivre, the same one that drives us to roll up our sleeves every day!
Because optimism and action are our driving forces, we're committed to restoring hope to those who need it most. 💪

At Emmaüs Campüs, we believe in a world of solidarity where everyone has a place, whatever their background.
Like Zamfira and the hundreds of other employees we support, we accompany them on a daily basis in their desire to return to employment, access to healthcare and dignified housing, thanks to second-hand solidarity donations and purchases. 🙌♻️
A big congratulations to our employees and a big thank you to you!
This month, the enthusiasm of our insertion employees, as well as the involvement of our support teams, have led to great progress! 🤝
We were fortunate to see several of our integration employees go on training to discover a new professional environment and develop their skills. In total, 6 employees had the chance to train at different companies during the month of May. 🎉
If we are able to offer these professionalizing training courses to our employees and support them, it's thanks to you. 👫
In fact, we couldn't help our employees without the work of the support team that follows them from the moment they join our association. These hours of accompaniment and training are, in part, financed by the donations we receive.

Your help enables us to achieve our day-to-day objective: to see our employees on integration leave for new horizons, in particular, in new companies with a CDD or CDI.
This month, 3 employees succeeded in securing a work contract, which will enable them to make a lasting break from precariousness.
🌟 We would therefore like to thank you for your help and commitment, without which we would not be able to support our integration employees as effectively! 🌟

Why we love it?
It is our duty as a society not to leave any citizen behind. Emmaüs Défi is committed to offering solutions that enable homeless people to reintegrate into the world of work at their own pace, all by collecting and recycling objects: the perfect project to accelerate the social and ecological transition.
Successful accompaniment isn't just about someone finding a job. The key is to listen, to make them feel that you believe in them, and not to pass judgment.
