The Allentown Rescue Mission would like to thank its faithful supporters for their
steadfast commitment to its mission of rescuing, rehabilitating, and restoring men in crisis who are
experiencing homelessness.
Donations collected throughout the year allowed 877 guests to receive life-changing services in 2025.
On the most basic level, the Allentown Rescue Mission provided 30,959 nights of safe shelter and 59,756
nutritious meals to men in need of refuge. Patron support further aided 117 guests looking to change
the trajectory of their lives by joining the Mission’s eight-week Transformation Program. Seventy-eight
graduates of the program went on to be employed by the Clean Team Workforce, developing work skills
and saving money to transition to independent living. Guests received shelter, meals, clothing, and free
medical care through the DeSales Free Medical Clinic for the duration of their stay.
The Allentown Rescue Mission is 100% privately funded, relying on the generosity of individuals and
local businesses. The guests served, and the successes achieved in 2025 were only possible with the
community’s help. Thank you for all the love and resources that were bestowed on our most vulnerable
neighbors, who relied on the Allentown Rescue Mission this year.
