About:

The Idaho Falls Rescue Mission is a faith based nonprofit organization that exists to provide Help, Hope and a Future to the hungry, homeless, and hopeless in our community through the power and love of Jesus Christ.

We are 100% Community funded, meaning that we are not dependent on federal funding, and receive all of our financial support from local businesses and individuals just like YOU!

At the Idaho Falls Rescue Mission, we believe that EVERYONE has something to offer to those around them!
We encourage every person who walks through our doors to use the gifts, talents, and abilities that they have been given to impact our community. We are so thankful for the generosity of this community, and for the opportunity to be a ‘starting point for starting over’ for so many here in Southeastern Idaho!

When we welcome those in need through the doors of the Idaho Falls Rescue Mission, it is the moment where transformation begins. Our team meets men and women with open arms, and an ear ready to hear the stories of what has brought them to us. It is at this moment that we are able to tangibly demonstrate love through the meeting of physical needs: a warm safe place to sleep, a hot meal, a warm shower and hygiene kit, and clothing vouchers.

As our guests spend time at our shelters, our staff and volunteers are given the chance to walk beside them as they begin to learn the process of starting over. Through partnerships with local businesses, our guests are given employment opportunities, financial management coaching, Bible study options, addiction recovery support, continued accountability through case management, and the life skills and education needed to start again.

For those who are interested, we also connect them with our network of area churches who will provide continued support and community after they leave our facilities.

As our guests begin to lay new foundations and rebuild their lives and relationships, the Idaho Falls Rescue Mission continues to provide opportunities for mentorship and support through ongoing classes and our network of local churches. One of the highlights for us is when a previous guest returns to visit, and to celebrate the milestones in their lives with us! We love to have them return as volunteers, donors, (or in some cases, even staff!)

We strive to continue these relationships and stay connected as our guests restore broken relationships and transition back into the community in the healthiest and most successful ways possible!

Thank you for your support!
