Dear %%first_name%%,

I know I don’t have to tell you it’s hot out there.

Summer in Los Angeles can mean fun in the sun for some, but misery for others.

Right now, there are few good options for people living on the streets of Skid Row to escape from the summer heat.

That’s why your generosity is so important.

You help provide shelter and hope to hurting people at a time when they need it the most.

At Union Rescue Mission, lives are transformed through meals, care, discipleship in God's Word, and mentorship to help people experiencing homelessness develop life skills to make a brand-new start.

Because of you, Krysta, whose story I previously wrote you about, has come full circle.

Through counseling, she has learned about healthy relationships, and gained important life skills. She eventually went on to earn her GED and a college degree.

Today, she serves as program director for the Domestic Violence Program of the Child and Family Center in Santa Clarita, helping women just like her rebuild their lives.

With your support, we can help transform more lives and help more people leave homelessness behind for good.

Will you give as generously as you can right now?

Thank you for all you do to help rescue and transform lives in the heart of Los Angeles.

Blessings,

Rev. Andy Bales, CEO
