We believe God has called us to gather in the gleanings. He will bring the increase and provide the shelters.

We are asking people to commit to a week, a month, three months, or longer to save your leftover change. Upon request we will give out 3x3x3 change boxes to store your gleanings in. (Boxes can be picked up at the Mission or you may call, write, or email us and we will ship out as many as you want at our expense.) Each time you drop your coins in the box, realize you are helping someone in need. Pray as you make your deposit and remember to thank God for the gifts you have been given that enable you to put anything in the box. Once your box is full, bring it to Blessed Hope or write us a check for the amount of change and mail it.

Too long we have written off the homeless as those who, through addiction, laziness, or some other fault of their own, have gotten themselves in this situation. Here, in the Downriver area, problems of poverty now cover all ages (including children), races and reasons.

Our goal is to provide shelter to 100 men and 100 women in the Downriver area. Please continue to check our website to see how the fund is growing!

Thank you for considering a patnership with us in Change for the Better.

As unto the least of these...
