Since its founding in 1937, Union Mission has grown from a small soup kitchen to a multi-facility organization serving the homeless population of the greater Savannah area. Today, Union Mission provides emergency shelter, permanent supportive housing, behavioral health services, support for people living with HIV/AIDS,  and employment and educational services. Through our programs, individuals and families acquire the tools they need to lift themselves out of homelessness and into a brighter future.

Homeless has a variety of causes — job loss, eviction, family tragedy, addiction, domestic violence, a major health condition, and more. Union Mission strives to empower and coach people towards excellence. Through our programs, we seek to create an environment where individuals can thrive and lives can be rebuilt.  Our goal is to encourage the growth of the individual and by doing so, permanently eliminate their homelessness.
