Your partnership ensures there is always a seat at the table for those in need

For generations, the family table has been a cherished space where relatives and loved ones come together to share meals, stories, and laughter and create lasting memories. The ‘Orama' Table is built around this cherished space of connection, sharing, and creating memories. It is a place of life change, restoration, and spiritual growth.

Our rich history is filled with stories of people finding hope and vision for their future through their experiences at Orama. We are committed to being a place of welcome, hospitality, and life-changing encounters that can alter the course of your life's journey.
