Dear Friends:

There is no doubt that this is a painful time for everyone.  We are all suffering through one of the toughest financial downturns in history.  Add this to the fact we are a country at war, and this is an election year, and uncertainty—even anxiety—can result. I personally do not know anyone who has not felt the impact of these turbulent times in some way. 

Because of your faithful support even in these hard times, the Mission can host a number of Christmas events for our city’s poor. Our goal is to spread cheer and lasting hope to as many people as possible! With this in mind, we’ve designed Christmas celebrations and events for many poor and needy groups in our community. Here are some of our upcoming events this season. Thank you for all you do to make them possible!

The increasing requests for the Mission’s unique services and the opportunity to provide an innovative solution to Denver’s homeless problem have led the Board of Directors to undertake the first capital campaign in the institution’s history. The campaign is designed to add emergency shelter space, provide transitional housing for individuals and families, and serve more people in its New Life rehabilitation program.

Denver’s Road Home is the name of the 10-year plan set up by The Denver Commission to End Homelessness. This plan consists of 7 Goals which are each designed to address different aspects of the homeless problem. Naturally, since Denver Rescue Mission (DRM) has been helping the homeless for over 100 years, we are contributing significantly to this initiative. Listed below are some of the ways that DRM is participating in the Denver's Road Home.
