This weekend, a group of Portland Rescue Mission program graduates, staff and volunteers teamed up to run the 2024 Hood to Coast relay with hopes to raise funds and spread awareness about our highly successful recovery programs. Under the banner, “Sober and Thriving” these 12 runners, told inspiring stories of men and women who broke free of the chains of addiction and found freedom at Portland Rescue Mission.
While Oregon bears the devastating rank of last for addiction problems and available recovery programs in the country, this team shined a light that sparked hope for many along the racecourse of the world’s largest relay this year. And thanks to our sponsors, every penny raised this weekend directly supports the men and women participating in Portland Rescue Mission’s residential programs. It is only because of the support of our community that we can continue to offer these highly effective programs for free, to anyone who needs them.
Learn more about how our New Life programs work and help hundreds of men and woman find freedom from addiction.
Thank you to our sponsors for cheering our team on and showing compassion and support for those who need it!
