Portland Rescue Mission started in 1949 as a soup kitchen by the Burnside Bridge in Portland, Oregon. 75 years later, we're still known for providing hope and transforming lives for those battling homelessness, hunger, and addiction. Your support provides for urgent needs like food, shelter and clothing. And you help offer a powerful solution to the root causes of homelessness through addiction recovery, spiritual renewal and life skills training. Help us give hope and restore life to hurting people in need.
