About
At its uptown campuses, The Bowery Mission provides caring and safe Residential Programs for women in crisis to achieve personal goals for life and work, heal from past trauma, and overcome barriers to independent living. All women are invited into a faith-based community committed to practicing hospitality, showing respect, and restoring hope.
Mission
Since the 1870s, The Bowery Mission has served generations of New Yorkers experiencing homelessness, hunger, and poverty. Our mission is to see lives transformed ? delivering hope and healing through the power of Jesus Christ.
How we support them
How We Serve Together
Volunteers are vital to the ongoing programming at the Women's Centers. Volunteers cook and serve meals, mentor in the Career Center, lead recreational group outings, teach sewing, knitting, and art classes, and lead special events.
What We Help Fund
Our funding covers costs for nutritious meals, career center materials and supplies, activities and outings including museum visits and cultural events, and supplies for sewing and knitting classes.
How We Partner Together
Our volunteers infuse additional love, warmth, and joy in the lives of the women at the Bowery. They also creatively work with staff to find new ways to build relationships with the women during their time of life transformation.
