Support Union Mission This Giving Tuesday

Union Mission is raising funds for Giving Tuesday during the entire month of November through December 3rd to remodel 4 bathrooms at The Magdalene Project, a 20-bed emergency shelter for homeless women and their children.

Getting kids ready for school can be stressful; imagine sharing a space with 5 other mothers and 12 children. For these families, basic day-to-day activities like bathing children at night should be the least of their worries. Union Mission’s goal is to raise $8,000 through their Giving Tuesday campaign to better serve the clients who utilize these facilities.

Donations are accepted at unionmission. ejoinme.org/Givingtuesday. Individuals or civic organization interested in sponsoring, can contact Suzanne Willis at (912) 238- 2777 ext. 1315 or swillis@unionmission.org.

Union Mission clients can stay at The Magdalene Project for a period of up to 90-days with a primary focus on providing basic human needs to include: shelter, food, clothing, transportation, mental health counseling, and employment services as well as community referrals that will further support their ability to become more independent. The shelter program provides these mothers with a stable environment and the supportive services necessary to be successful in supporting their families.

Over the past 5 years alone, The Magdalene Project at Union Mission has served 370 homeless children and 240 of them were school age at the time of entry.
