A Call To Action

Each year, #NationalHomelessnessAwarenessWeek serves as a powerful reminder that the fight against hunger and homelessness is not just an issue—it’s a cry out to do something!

In San Diego County, homelessness increased by 3% in San Diego County overall from last year, the one-day snapshot, point-in-time count found 10,605 people experiencing homelessness. That is too many! Do you agree? 🤔

Your partnership with the San Diego Rescue Mission empowers men, women, and children with vital resources, safe shelter, and God’s guidance. They are changed, and you will be too.

Volunteer, partner, pray, and more! Together, let's transform the state of homelessness in our county. Visit the link in our bio to get involved.

We’re also thrilled to also highlight the Barbara Lee Edwards Scholarship, which began in Spring 2020 to empower women like Nekaiya, who has shown unwavering dedication and has big dreams for her future. Hip, hip, hooray! 🎓 May your journey ahead be filled with endless possibilities!

A heartfelt thank you!❤️Your help is working!!!

In 2024, we celebrated the graduation of 160 individuals from our 12-month rehabilitation program, Mission Academy. By addressing the issues of their heart, our students break free from destructive patterns and embrace healthier habits. They find jobs, secure permanent homes, and gain support from God and their community.

Your compassion has played a crucial role in transforming these lives.

Last Saturday, 38 students proudly stepped across the stage, embarking on their journey toward self-sufficiency.

May God’s blessings guide them on this new adventure, inspiring them to share their stories and spread joy wherever they go.

Check out these inspiring alumni videos: www.sdrescue.org/real-stories/alumni-videos/

Thank you for being a part of this mission. Together, we can rewrite the narrative of homelessness, one life at a time.

A Race to Remember!

Recently, 15 students and 7 staff members from our year-long recovery program, Mission Academy, completed the America’s Finest City Half Marathon. Among the participants, one story stood out: Armond's.

In Mission Academy’s Up and Running Program, each season the team votes for a participant who exemplifies excellence—someone who is consistent, has a positive attitude, motivates others, and takes on a leadership role. This season, Armond earned the Excellence Award, which was presented the night before the race.

Known for his devotionals and prayers, Armond accepted the award with tears of gratitude. His resilience is remarkable; he has faced chronic homelessness since the age of 5.

For Armond, crossing the half-marathon finish line was a "taste of victory." Through Up and Running Again, he has gained a deeper understanding of himself and plans to continue running, looking forward to future seasons with the training program.
As the Bible reminds us, “Run the race set before us.” Armond’s story is a testament to the strength and perseverance we can find through faith and dedication.

Thank you for believing in our mission and helping to empower lives. Learn more about Mission Academy and donate a meal. Just $2.72 feeds students like Armond in our residential program. Links in our bio.

We have decided to include the San Diego Rescue Mission in our estate plans because we like the ministry that this organization is providing. We have left a bequest in our Trust.”
