How it works
You have a heart to tackle homelessness in your area
You don’t need housing experience or capital for your church or charity to house people, you do need compassion and a commitment to make a difference.
We buy a property and support you to use it for those in need
Green Pastures offer a genuine partnership with your church or charity, we’re with you every step of the way.
Together we house the homeless and see lives transformed
Help people experience long term, lasting change as your team supports them in their home.
