As more and more homeless men, women, and families are seeking the Mission’s help, your support is needed more than ever!
In fact, we just received the latest “Count Us In” numbers…and they’re shocking! Homelessness is skyrocketing in King County. Right now, 6,320 men, women, and families are living without shelter. That’s a 15% increase from this time last year!
And as we gear up for the busy holiday season, we're expecting a record number of people to come through our doors needing access to our lifesaving services.
So many are counting on you. Like Joel, who recently said, "I was homeless but Seattle's Union Gospel Mission showed up and helped me. When I got to the Mission, I knew I was headed somewhere. I knew that I had purpose in life. And now I have love in my heart."
But because of this Matching Grant, your gift today will DOUBLE to rescue twice as many people from living on the streets. We must meet this $20,000 Matching Grant before our fiscal year closes on August 31.
There's so much opportunity. You can be the hands and feet of Christ through your support — reaching into the community and embracing those in greatest need.
Please send in your Matching Grant gift right away—by August 31 at the latest. Thank you for giving generously!
Together, serving those in greatest need,
Dave Mitchell
Interim President
P. S. We must raise $375,000 before our fiscal year closes on August 31. Please give today to have your gift go twice as far, thanks to our $20,000 Matching Grant.
