To help others succeed in getting off the streets and on a different path, the Rescue Mission is in the midst of a public push called the Every Heart program to help those who need it the most.
SAN DIEGO – A bed to sleep in and a roof over his head — it’s something Jesse Henderson got at the San Diego Rescue Mission after he was homeless on and off for four years.
After completing the San Diego Rescue Mission’s rehabilitation group, Henderson is now working as an electrical apprentice and is in his own apartment with his sister. “Because we don’t take any government funding, we need the public to help us raise $5 million to finish renovating the rooms here at our main campus downtown and to launch the navigation centers in Oceanside and National City,” said San Diego Rescue Mission CEO Donnie Dee.“We’re going to add 260 emergency shelter beds, overnight beds, triage beds to the system. And we think ultimately, we’re going to get a chance to change the state of homelessness in San Diego,” Dee said.
