About City Union Mission
“City Union Mission depends on the partnership of friends and supporters so we can continue to grow with the changing needs of the community and ensure that those who are poor, homeless or under-served throughout the metro area have the opportunity for a better life.” — Gareth Keown, Chief Executive Officer Since 1924, City Union Mission has provided warm beds, nutritious food, and a place of safety for thousands of poverty-stricken and homeless men, women, and children. Founded by Rev. and Mrs. David Bulkley, the Mission's staff has been uncompromising in their commitment to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the hurting and the lost. City Union Mission receives no government support and is not a United Way agency. The Mission depends completely on the gifts of God's people--individuals, churches, groups, foundations, and businesses who care about the poor and homeless. As our community partners together, we are impacting the lives of our hurting neighbors and providing hope.
