Mission Services has been providing support to Hamiltonians since 1956. It started with our Men’s Shelter and we have grown and adapted our programs to the evolving needs of our community.
What started as one farmer supporting one man who needed rehabilitation, turned into an organization that supports thousands of people at our Good Food Centre each week. We became a safe place for women and children escaping domestic violence, and a space for unhoused and precariously housed women needing community and access to basic amenities. And now we are going to be able to help more men than ever before when we move into our new Men’s Shelter this summer.
But this is only possible because of you. While we’re supporting individuals in person, you’re supporting them from home.
Your financial gifts ensure we have the resources necessary to run our programs, your food and hygiene donations ensure our Good Food Centre is stocked, and your involvement in events like Mission Accomplished, which you’ll read about in this newsletter, raise awareness about the programs we offer and how we help those in need in our community.
Thank you for continuing to be there for us, so we can be there for our most vulnerable neighbours.
We hope you have a wonderful summer!
