MKE Rescue Mission

Since 1893 the Milwaukee Rescue Mission has been working with the hungry and hurting of Milwaukee, helping them restore their lives and their hope. As their needs have changed, they have adapted to meet those needs.

On May 15th, 1893, the Rev. B. Faye Mills and a group of Christian businessmen organized Milwaukee Rescue Mission to help homeless and alcoholic men on the streets of Milwaukee. By working together, they meet the physical and spiritual needs of these hurting men. They also begin a tradition of restoring lives and hope in Milwaukee. Then in 1921 their Mission expanded to include women and children.

Helping Restore Lives Through God’s Grace

After decades of service to Milwaukee, the Milwaukee Rescue Mission is becoming an esteemed institution, providing help to the city’s needy. In addition to the support for men, the Milwaukee Rescue Mission organizes a Woman’s Craft club, and other programs for women and children. These hardworking seamstresses create a role for themselves, providing sewing and clothing for residents of the Milwaukee Rescue Mission.

The Rescue Mission is currently looking for individual to help provide hot, nourishing meals to neighbors struggling with homelessness this Thanksgiving. If you would like to sponsor a table you can go here to do so.
