Pledge to make a difference, together.
Founded in 1892, the Denver Rescue Mission is the oldest full-service Christian charity serving the poor and needy in the Rocky Mountain region. The Denver Rescue Mission exists to meet people at their physical and spiritual points of need. It is our aim to return the poor, needy and homeless to society as self-sufficient, productive community members. We do this through meals, shelter, food and clothing distribution, education, medical care, Christian counseling, case management, work discipline, transitional housing programs, and assistance for permanent housing.
Programs
The Lawrence Street Shelter is the Mission's most recognizable location. Many refer to it simply as "Jesus Saves," because of the neon Jesus Saves sign that adorns the corner of the building. This facility shelters up to 200 men nightly, 300 in inclement weather. Emergency care is provided through meals, shelter, food boxes and clothing distribution. Our clinic is also located here and provides medical care mainly for program residents.
Champa House is a long-term New Life rehabilitation program in a residential setting, offering help toward self-sufficiency to single mothers and their dependent children.
Harvest Farm, located in Wellington, Colorado (near Fort Collins), is a rural New Life rehabilitation program for men. Harvest Farm is a fully operating farm and ranch with food and clothing distribution, youth camps, and a fall festival with a corn maze.
The Crossing offers a long-term New Life rehabilitation program for men; transitional housing for homeless families, single men and women, and New Life Program graduates; and temporary housing for interns and visitors. Many of our offices for our program staff are also located at The Crossing.
