Magdalene is a residential community for women who have survived lives of prostitution, trafficking, addiction. and life on the streets. For two years, women are invited to live in one of six residential houses at no cost to them. Employment is offered through Magdalene's social enterprise, Thistle Farms. By hand, the women of Magdalene/Thistle Farms make natural bath and body care products that are as good for the body as they are for the earth. Magdalene/Thistle Farms takes no government funding but is entirely supported through private gifts and grants and the sale of Thistle Farms products. We believe that, in the end, love is the most powerful force for change in the world.
About Us
Magdalene provides housing, food, medical and dental expenses, therapy, education, and job training for women – all without charging residents anything. Thistle Farms and Magdalene stand as a witness to the truth that, in the end, love is more powerful than all the forces that drive women to the streets.
