This past year was a very successful year for the Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries, and our efforts to end hunger and homelessness in the City. Services, such as our emergency shelters, transitional housing facilities, treatment centers, and vocational training programs provided individuals with the hope, confidence, and resources they needed for full recovery and rehabilitation.
In 2014, we built upon our existing programs, expanding to meet the needs of those we serve, while adding new programs, such as our Warming Center, which is designed to provide those in need temporary shelter from the cold, harsh weather that we experience during the winter season. Additionally, DRMM expanded its efforts to reach Macomb County through its acquisition of The Lighthouse Food Bank, which provides food boxes and emergency goods to low-income individuals and families in Macomb.
