Hope in Full Bloom is Denver Rescue Mission’s spring fundraiser bringing the community together for an exciting evening of food, drinks, music, and meaningful impact. This inspiring event supports our work in homelessness prevention and helping families in crisis.
We loved celebrating life transformation in our community with you at Hope in Full Bloom. We hope you left encouraged, inspired and reminded that hope really does grow when we come together.
Together, we are helping hope bloom across our community as we work to end homelessness one life at a time. Like Maddix and his family, our first-ever Prevention program success story.
Hear firsthand from Maddix and his family of how your support changes lives.
“They were the perfect family…” Prevention Case Manager, Nicole Reichelderfer said. “They had applied to so many different programs and missed the criteria just barely …. All these layers were adding up, which was going to lead to them being potentially unhoused.”
