Help for people in need

In every period of our history there have been people who fell into hardship through no fault of their own and found themselves on the margins of society. The seriously ill, the poor, victims of war: for centuries they could count on finding a refuge with us and support in getting back on their feet. Helping those in need has always been at the heart of the Order of Malta's work.

We see supporting people on the margins of society as our task today as well. Our help goes above all to people with disabilities, to families in difficult social and economic circumstances and to the homeless. We help them with their basic needs and support them, wherever possible, in caring for themselves and their families.
