How will your gifts and auction bids help?

Men, women, and children facing homelessness find hope and dignity at Capital City Rescue Mission. For many, it starts with a warm bed, a hot meal, clean clothes, or free medical care. Every gift and auction purchase helps someone move through homelessness and addiction toward stability and a life of their own. With your support, they can rebuild that life and keep it.

How to bid in the auction
