The HOME Project was founded in response to the call made by President Obama to the private sector to help address the refugee crisis in 2016. The HOME Project currently operates 13 shelters in Athens, Greece.

Our shelters operate with the support of the IKEA Foundation, the Shapiro Foundation, the Stavros Niarchos Foundation, and the Home Affairs Fund, co-funded by the European Union. The Dutch Government is also funding the operation of three shelters, through the collaboration between The HOME Project and the Dutch NGO Movement on The Ground.

The IKEA Foundation further assisted with the establishment of the Child Protection Unit, and the Shapiro Foundation funded an educational program that has granted 43 full-time scholarships at ACS Athens.
