Ways to Get Involved
1) Group Volunteer Experience
Bring your team to experience a wonderful team building opportunity with groups from 5-10. Serve those experiencing homelessness through meal service, supply sorting and other opportunities.
2) Sponsorships
Turkey Drive: Help support the Mission’s annual Turkey Drive by becoming a sponsor at your desired level. Special Thanksgiving volunteer opportunities are available with sponsorship.
Christmas Banquet: At our annual Christmas Banquets at Denver Rescue Mission (DRM), your sponsorship of $5,000, helps ensure that our guests throughout the Mission have a special Christmas meal to celebrate as a Mission family.
Community Life Opportunities: Sponsors support special needs throughout our community of services. Your sponsorship meets important needs such as birthday bashes for our youth and New Life participants living at The Crossing. Additionally, it ensures that special opportunities provide normalcy for our residents.
Examples: Birthday Bashes, Zoo trip, El Dorado Canyon, Summer Camp at IdRaHaJe, Vacation Bible School, Bronco Store
3) Mission Lunch and Learn
Corporate groups can learn about people experiencing homelessness in Denver, how Denver Rescue Mission is addressing this complex issue and what we can all do to help. We can design the experience to include onsite volunteering and team building. Virtual and in-person options are available, and topics can be tailored in advance to your group’s interests and team values. Please contact us below, and we’ll contact you with more information.

Your company can provide the meal and serve to our guests for $1,000. Social media, newsletter and other public notifications will be included in the sponsorship.

Host a drive or raise funds to provide items that men, women and children experiencing homelessness typically need throughout the year. Hygiene items, bottled water, snacks, and seasonal clothing are great!
