Needs During COVID-19
Your Support Directly Meets the Needs of our Homeless during COVID-19
During these trying times, the Rescue Mission is carefully distributing resources in order to meet the needs of the men, women and children experiencing homelessness throughout San Diego.
Usually, our Partners for Hunger Relief Program serves and distributes food to 20 organizations each week. CURRENTLY, the Program is operating at an extremely high capacity — providing food to over 20 food distribution organizations PER DAY throughout our community.
If you’re wondering how the needs of poor and vulnerable people all over San Diego might be met during the Covid-19 Pandemic, the Partners for Hunger Relief Program is a driving force for meeting these needs: even at a time when resources are low.
As we continue to address the needs throughout San Diego, will you join us in providing resources and hope for our homeless?
The most impactful, direct way that you and your family can provide support during this season is by donating financially. The Rescue Mission does not receive any government funding and will not be receiving any circumstantial aid in this time of crisis. Even a donation of just $2.05 provides a hot meal for someone experiencing homelessness in the face of COVID-19.
To donate financially today, go here.
Your support IS the driving force of hope for our homeless during this time.
Our Sincerest Thanks,
Rescue Mission Staff
