Each summer, the homeless take a beating from the hot sun. Dehydration, heat-related illnesses and increased violence are very real threats to men, women and children living on the streets, in their cars or in other vulnerable situations.
Thankfully, Buffalo City Mission gives them a place where they can find relief and quench their thirst for lasting hope. Our emergency assistance services, Christ-centered recovery programs and community outreaches help meet the physical, spiritual, emotional and educational needs of individuals and families struggling to survive.
Now, you can help by donating one dollar for every day of summer. Your gift of $90 for 90 days helps ensure that Buffalo City Mission continues to bring nourishing food, safe shelter and long-term health and stability to the homeless and near-homeless all summer long.
Your gifts to Buffalo City Mission provided these services to the poor and homeless of Buffalo and Western New York. Thanks so much!
