Enterprise

Amos House WORKS is the business arm of Amos House. Known as "social enterprises", these businesses provide on-the-job training and internships to participants in our Amos Culinary Education (ACE) and Amos Carpentry Training (ACT) programs, which help men and women make a fresh start in a new career.

Founded in 2004, Amos House WORKS includes More Than a Meal, a full-service event catering service; an institutional contract catering division serving schools and camps; Friendship Café, a breakfast and lunch café-style restaurant; and Amos House Builds, a home renovation and repair business.

The businesses serve a double bottom line by generating revenue for Amos House and stepping-stone employment for individuals with little work history. Together, they employ as many as twenty full- and part-time workers.
