When you think about The Evansville Rescue Mission, you probably think they are just a homeless shelter for men. While they do operate a Residence Center, your ERM is also a source of meals for local families. The Evansville Rescue Mission opens it's doors to anyone that needs a meal 3 times a day, 7 days a week.

That is a huge undertaking, so volunteers are always needed. the ERM served close to 300,000 meals in 2019, and I can only imagine that the need will go up in 2020. The Evansville Rescue Mission relies on generous donations from a variety of sources. It is a 501(c)3 nonprofit, with no funding from the government, and not a United Way agency.
