Over the course of this year, we have seen 8,646 unique individuals walk through our doors at Wheeler Mission.
Our generous community has made help, healing, and hope possible for these unique guests this year. Through God’s love, and our community’s support and prayers, people have been transformed from hurting to hopeful.
Thank you to everyone who has made it possible for us to serve our residents thus far, in 2024.
Did you RSVP? 📩 We need to hear from you! It only takes a second of your time… but it makes all the difference for our neighbors who are homeless!
When YOU give during the Love Your Neighbor Campaign, you provide meals, safe shelter & life-changing care that rebuilds lives and makes second chances possible. 🌅 Hurting men and women need help this summer – but we can’t do it without YOU.
Give by August 31… every dollar from you helps rebuild lives: https://wheelermission.org/?form=donate&utm_source=website&utm_medium=preheader

Meet Ned Walker, a resident of ours!
Before coming to Wheeler Mission, Ned had difficulty taking responsibility for his decisions. With the time he has spent at Wheeler and the Horizon House Program, he has learned a huge less about learning to not be scared to ask for help.
We are grateful for the transformations our residents made here at Wheeler Mission. Read more amazing stories: https://wheelermission.org/stories-you-will-love/

Meet Ashley Wright!
Ashley’s biggest challenge before coming to the mission was the fact that she would be separated from her children if she did not receive help. When she came to Wheeler Mission, she was blown away by the compassion, love, and joy she witnessed when she walked in the doors.
Wheeler Mission gave Ashley a stronger relationship with God and a new perspective on life.

125 years ago, a woman named Mary Wheeler and her friends founded and operated a refuge for neighboring women in desperate need – a refuge known today as Wheeler Mission.
Their legacy of female philanthropy and service lives on in our newly formed Mary Wheeler Circle, an association for women to help other women!
If you want to make a difference in the lives of other women, you’ve come to the right place! Learn more about the Mary Wheeler Circle: https://wheelermission.org/giving-societies/marywheelercircle/
