Giving Hope. Restoring Life.

 


Portland Rescue Mission has been giving hope and restoring life to men, woman, and children who are experiencing homelessness since 1949. This organization is a faith-based, and strives to serve as mentioned in Isaiah 58:10 which reads,

"Feed the hungry and help those in trouble. Then your light will shine out from the darkness, and the darkness around you will be light as day." 

Portland Rescue Missions serve the Portland community in a number of different ways:

Urgent Needs Met: At their Burnside Shelter, they offer nutritious meals, safe shelter, and supportive programs that provide dignity, cultivate trust, offer hope and encouragement, and provide pathways off the street. 

Addiction Recovery: Through their one-year New Life Restoration Programs, they offer men, woman and children holistic, relational care to overcome addiction and negative life patterns while building healthy relationships in a restorative community leading to independent living. 

Vocational Trainings: Program participants gain job readiness at all of their facilities, developing job skills as they serve alongside staff in various roles. They can also receive job training at their social enterprises - Mission Bar-B-Que and Drive Away Hunger. 

Transitional Support: Their community houses for Shepherd's Door graduates allow woman and moms with children to have extra support as they transition to independent living. 


Looking to Give? You could change a life TODAY! 

"Just $24 provides two nights of care – a hearty meal, hot shower, clean clothes, and a safe night’s rest."
