Seattle's Union Gospel Mission

Your gift DOUBLES — help 2X as many homeless neighbors find hope for a new life!

A generous friend of Seattle’s Union Gospel Mission has offered a GiveBIG Matching Grant — which means your gift today DOUBLES up to $50,000 — to go 2X as far to help more people find hope, healing, and a path off the streets.

Your GiveBIG gift helps provide:

🧡 2X the lifesaving care

🧡 2X the safe shelter and meals

🧡 2X the recovery for lasting change

At Seattle’s Union Gospel Mission, we’ve been loving and serving our homeless neighbors since 1932 — starting with a borrowed soup kettle during the Great Depression. Today, we walk alongside thousands each day, offering hope, restoring dignity, and helping people move into healthy lives. No matter their story, we want everyone to know they are loved — by us, and by God.

GiveBIG now to DOUBLE your impact by May 7 — and help change lives!

Your support helps the lost become found.

• For Sherry, rock bottom came after two decades of addiction and periods of homelessness. When her mother told her she could no longer come home or even call, she felt completely alone. Isolated in a hotel room, she lost all hope. “I was just absolutely miserable,” she says.
• Jason also battled addiction. One night, after work, he was robbed and beaten. “I got four broken ribs, 10 staples in the back of my head. Praise God that I’m not dead,” he says. Though he survived, he lost his job and became homeless.

Both Sherry and Jason tried to break free from addiction, but they were unsuccessful. Everything changed when they came to Seattle’s Union Gospel Mission.

Your support reaches neighbors in need.

More than 16,000 of our neighbors in the greater Seattle area are homeless. At Seattle’s Union Gospel Mission, we go to the streets — meeting people where they are, getting to know them by name, and offering them hope.

Through Search + Rescue teams, emergency shelters, and long-term recovery programs, we help our homeless neighbors move from lost to found, from life on the streets to the lives God wants for them.

• Jason connected with the Mission through a couple serving with Search + Rescue. They got to know him, prayed with him, and walked alongside him until he was ready to enter the Mission’s recovery program.

• Sherry found safety at Hope Place, our recovery program for women, after fleeing an abusive relationship.

At the Mission, we address the root causes of homelessness, restore dignity, and walk with people as they rebuild their lives in Christ.

Your support helps change lives.

Both Sherry and Jason found what they needed to start a new life at the Mission.

• Sherry earned three degrees and now works as a recovery specialist, helping others who struggle as she once did. More than anything, she says, “God is the center of my life. I depend on God for everything.”

• Jason has been clean for over 10 years. He is now a married father of four and part of a church community that has “blessed his socks off.”
