Help us Grow.
Center of Hope
Thanks to a generous grant from the city, we are planning to expand our services through this renovation and you can help!
Enhancing the Ability to Serve
At Butte Rescue Mission, the demand for our services has never been greater. Each day, we see more individuals and families in need, and we know that we must do more to meet these rising demands. That’s why we’re excited to share the progress of our Center of Hope, a transformational capital campaign project that will significantly expand and enhance our ability to serve our community.
Breaking Ground for a Brighter Tomorrow
Last year, we broke ground on the Center of Hope, converting a 10,000 square-foot storage building on our campus into a vital hub of support for those experiencing homelessness and hardship. With construction slated for completion this year, we are poised to dramatically increase our capacity to serve, offering vital services and creating a welcoming space for those in need.
Meeting the Needs of Our Growing Community
The Center of Hope will serve as the cornerstone of our efforts to address the increasing demand for services in our community. This high-capacity building is designed with several key improvements in mind:
Expanded Dining Hall
An additional 1,300 square feet of dining space will allow us to double our food service capacity, ensuring that more individuals and families can receive warm, nutritious meals in a safe and welcoming environment.
Cold Weather Overflow Space
During the winter months, the Center of Hope will provide cold weather overflow, offering shelter and warmth for individuals who would otherwise be left out in the elements.
Enhanced Healthcare Services
With private rooms dedicated to Free Healthcare for the Homeless, we will be able to expand our healthcare offerings to include much-needed mental health services, addressing the critical health needs of those without access to consistent care.
Family Shelter Expansion
By relocating administrative offices to the Center of Hope, we’ll be able to free up valuable space in the women's and family shelter, expanding our capacity to serve families in need.
Place for Education & Growth
The expanded dining hall will also serve as a multi-purpose space for educational groups, support meetings, and community gatherings – helping to create a space for healing, learning, and connection.
A Hopeful Future for All
The Center of Hope is more than just a building—it represents a commitment to meeting the needs of those who need it most. As the demand for our services continues to rise, this project ensures that we can better serve our community by providing not just food and shelter, but also healthcare, mental health services, and a safe environment for everyone who walks through our doors. We are incredibly grateful for the generous contributions that have made this vision possible. With your continued support, the Center of Hope will provide a place of refuge, healing, and hope for years to come.
