The Rescue Mission

The Rescue Mission has served the homeless and poor in the love of Christ since 1887. For many years, it was one mission and one city. The RM fed and housed alcoholic men living on the edge of the Erie Canal in Syracuse. Today, they serve the homeless and poor in the love of Christ in Syracuse, Cayuga County and Broome County. While it’s now three communities, it’s still one mission. Your donations will help feed these men.
