At Portland Rescue Mission, transformation doesn’t happen overnight. Healing from homelessness, addiction, and trauma takes time, trust, and compassionate care. Since 1949, our community has walked alongside men, women, and children on this journey, offering not just relief in moments of crisis but long-term pathways toward restored lives.
When you choose to leave a legacy gift, you become part of that ongoing story. Your generosity extends hope beyond your lifetime, ensuring that future generations have access to the care, dignity, and opportunity every person deserves.
“For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” — Matthew 6:21
Giving Hope Through a Holistic Pathway of Care
At PRM, we believe lasting transformation happens through individualized, Christ-centered care delivered across four integrated stages, each designed to meet people where they are and help them move forward with hope.
- Get Help – Meeting Immediate Needs
For neighbors facing crisis, the first step is simple but lifesaving. We provide warm meals, safe shelter, hygiene services, and compassionate care, meeting urgent physical needs while offering dignity and respect. This initial support creates space for trust to grow and hope to begin. - Stabilize – Building a Foundation for the Future
Once immediate needs are met, we walk alongside each guest with short-term stabilization services tailored to their unique situation. These supports help establish safety, routine, and stability—critical building blocks for long-term healing and personal growth. - Recover – Addressing Root Causes with Whole-Person Care
True transformation requires more than surface-level solutions. Through long-term, Christ-centered recovery programs, we address the underlying causes of substance abuse disorders, trauma, and life crises. Guests receive personalized care that nurtures spiritual, emotional, and physical healing. - Give Back – Living with Purpose and Community
Recovery doesn’t end at graduation. We continue to support program graduates as they rebuild self-sufficient lives, encouraging engagement in local churches, meaningful work, and service to others. Many who once received help go on to become leaders, mentors, and contributors in their communities.
Your Legacy Creates a Ripple Effect
A planned legacy gift is more than a financial decision; it’s a statement of hope. By including Portland Rescue Mission in your estate plans, you provide men, women, and children with the time and resources needed to heal fully.
The impact of your gift reaches far beyond one individual. Transformed lives inspire family restoration, strengthen communities, and create a legacy of compassion that continues long into the future.
Together, we can ensure that hope remains available—not just today, but for generations to come.
