Homelessness is our city’s #1 issue. Be a part of lasting change.
Help get people off the streets permanently. Since 1955, partners in the San Diego Community have come alongside the Rescue Mission with one purpose: to transform the lives of men, women and children experiencing homelessness.
Together, we are stronger. Together, we can make a difference. Together, we can change the state of homelessness in San Diego.
Our generous partners come from a wide variety of backgrounds: businesses, faith-based organizations, schools, clubs, and more. See our available opportunities for Corporations and Churches below. Not a corporation or a church? Check out our Volunteers page for more opportunities.
Our Corporate Partners

Since 1955, partners in the San Diego Community have come alongside the Rescue Mission with one purpose: to transform the lives of men, women and children experiencing homelessness.
It is almost overwhelming to consider the thousands of nutritious meals served, nights of shelter provided, and hours of residential services, mental health counseling, and Christian ministry offered each month. It is also humbling — knowing we could never achieve this alone.
It is only through the generous contributions and passionate spirit of our partners that our students successfully complete their path to recovery, achieving an independent life and becoming a contributing member of society.
To our partners: Thank you for saving the lives of the most vulnerable in our community.
To our future partners: We’d love to have you along for the journey of impacting San Diego one life at a time.

Our Church Partners

The San Diego Rescue Mission is blessed to have the support of many local churches that share our vision for transforming lives through the power of Jesus Christ. God depends on his bride, the Church, to carry out his mission to redeem and restore all people while being Jesus’s hands and feet to a lost and hurting world.
We value church partnership as a win-win relationship. Churches called to partner with us receive education and awareness on homelessness and practical ways to help. Through ongoing opportunities to serve, church members learn to boldly step outside their comfort zones to share God’s love with those in need, which often leads to their own personal transformation.
The Mission benefits by receiving financial support (we receive no government funding), volunteers to help carry out our work, leadership for our chapel services, trained mentors to disciple our students, people to help with street outreach and special events, donated goods and supplies, and of course a lot of needed prayer.
