Welcome to our Valentine's edition of Mission Insider. We are thrilled to share with all of you the exciting news that today February 14, 2018, Mission of Love opened its New Day Center which will provide the following services to individuals experiencing homelessness: Mailing address for official documents, showers (ADA and Handicap Accessible), laundry services, charging stations for cell phones, computers to apply for services or to look for employment and food. The opening of our Day Center is our gift of love to our community and to the vulnerable population we serve. Happy Valentine's Day to everyone!

Special Thanks

Construction of Homeless Day Center

Our Homeless Day Center could not be possible without the in-kind donation received from BUCH CONSTRUCTION.

This amazing company donated the full construction of our Homeless Day Center including the two ADA compliant showers, new water heater, plumbing and electrical work.

Thanks to Karyl Bloyer for her generous pledge to pay for a new Washer and Dryer that will be used at the New Day Center.

We are extremely thankful for this contribution as it will allow us to help individuals experiencing homelessness do their laundry at our warehouse.
