Emmanuel City Mission

The mission of Emmanuel City Mission (ECM) is to connect the homeless and vulnerable with people who care; increasing trust and decreasing loneliness.

ECM is located in a large warehouse-like space in South Brisbane where homeless and vulnerable people can eat a healthy meal, rest, wash clothes, have a shower, be out of the weather, be safe and very importantly connect with people that genuinely care about them. Safe relationships can be formed even of only for the day. ECM is open 7 days a week and people can trust that we will be here for them tomorrow.

ECM also offers space for other outreach service providers free of charge to foster a diversity of connections and also enable a person to seek a pathway beyond their current circumstances.

Similarly, ECM seeks to build partnerships with other local community organisations (including schools, parishes and local businesses) to improve services to the homeless while also building connections to the vulnerable in the community.

We believe in people, their ability to achieve ambitions, their right to social and economic participation, and their often-unrecognised contribution to our communities.
We’re passionate about building a brighter future for all, every day. Our purpose is to make possibilities a reality for more than 4 million people with a disability living in Australia. This is the driving force behind everything we do, and our dedication remains as strong as ever.
Our story began more than 70 years ago, at a time when people with disability had few opportunities. Endeavour Foundation was born from the voices of parents who fought tirelessly for their children to have access to education and opportunity. The courage and tenacity of these founding families remain our guiding light as we champion a better future for people with disability.
