After Bobby lost his beloved mother, he spiraled into grief and loneliness, turning to alcohol to cope. Jobless and with nowhere else to go, he ended up sleeping in his truck until it was wrecked in an accident. But through the Rescue Mission’s Mission Academy, our year-long rehabilitation program, Tony found the support he needed to rebuild his life.

Now, we're thrilled to share an update: Bobby recently moved into his own apartment furnished by Humble Design San Diego. "… I put God first every day, and the blessings just keep coming," he says.

Your generosity changed Bobby's life, bringing hope and endless possibilities.

Thank you for making a difference in the lives of those experiencing homelessness in San Diego County. Support students like Bobby at Mission Academy today, donate through the link in our bio. 🙏❤️ #TransformingLives

It's more than just charity. You turn wheels into shelter!

When you donate your car to the San Diego Rescue Mission, you're transforming it into a "vehicle of hope." Your contribution is tax-deductible, and we use it to offer shelter, meals, clothing, education, and job-skills training to individuals and families facing homelessness.

The process is easy! Simply visit our Donate A Car page and download a Vehicle Donation Form through the link in our bio. Once we receive your completed form, we'll reach out to you to arrange a convenient time for vehicle pickup.

On behalf of those we serve, we extend our heartfelt gratitude for your generosity in turning your car into a life-changing gift.

Remember Daniel?

We posted about him last week. Daniel's story is one of highs and lows, from a thriving business and family life to the depths of addiction, incarceration, and finally rebuilding his life in our 12-month, faith-based recovery program.

He has been over the moon with how God is working in his life these days. He's eagerly preparing to share his testimony at an upcoming conference at the college he attends and wrapping up his final plumbing class. By the end of April, he'll proudly receive his plumbing certificate, and in early May, he'll graduate from Mission Academy.

Isn’t God amazing? Read his inspiring story of redemption and the impact of your generosity, click the Impact Report link in our bio.

A Family's Story of Resilience 💪 #homesweethome

Recently, the Mission's warehouse staff blessed a family with some essential furnishings as they found long-term housing.

This courageous mother and her three boys found themselves at our Downtown Navigation Center for women and children. From her first meeting with our staff, she was determined to find a safe place for her young children. She had been sober for over a decade, but her husband still struggled with substance abuse, creating an unstable living environment. So, she left with her boys.

Our Navigation Center was their lifeline. Our drop-in facility provides more than just a safe place to sleep; it offers hot meals, clothing, hygiene products, and access to warm showers every night. She received personalized case management tailored to her family's needs. For her, it meant finding a permanent home for her family through a housing voucher — a 4-bedroom house that is now filled with the sounds of happy children.

None of this would have been possible without the support of generous donors and partners like you. Your contributions change the lives of families experiencing homelessness.

“…Jesus said, ‘It is finished.’ With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.”
John 19:30

His mission was accomplished and his purpose was completed. BUT the story does not end at the cross. The best is yet to come. After Friday, comes Sunday and the resurrection of our Savior.

Have a blessed Holy weekend, reflecting on Jesus’ sacrifice and His gift of eternal life offered to all who believe in HIM.🙏

Daniel had it all – a loving wife, 2 children, and his own handyman business in Carlsbad. His life looked perfect on the outside, but he was keeping secrets from his family. Living a double life. His family had no idea that their lives would soon be torn apart…

Read Daniel’s story in the Impact Report linked in our bio to discover the outcome of his journey through homelessness.
