I have donated money to the Union Gospel Mission for years. Thousands of dollars (sacrificial giving, considering my finances). Last year my housing situation became unlivable, and I wasnt making enough money to afford rent. I went to Hope Place to see if I could stay there. At first they said there was this weird rule about calling every day for a week, but when I stopped by to get the details, they said I couldnt stay there because of Covid. I told them that all of the shelters were closed because of covid, and they pretty much said, tough luck, but we dont really care. Giving to this organization was a mistake. Its like sacrificially giving to a child for years and having them disown you in a totally uncaring way later on when you need them.

This sanctuary assists women with/without children in various states of despair to elevate their emotional status, and provide a clean safe environment. Many volunteers help to create celebrations of holidays and appreciation for the ladies who stem from different walks of life. These women practice recovery in a year of personal growth and acceptance, to reintegrate into families and society. The facility has a nursery and cafeteria among other amenities (Security) for living life and raising, protected children.I am a volunteer in the commercial kitchen a couple times a year.

I found myself homeless and alone at 51 years old. I would not have been able to navigate my way from homelessness and now into transitional housing without the resources from Union Gospel Mission. Thanks for all you do!!!

Last line of defense. Learned how to love the lovess

The best home ever ! i never wanted to leave i miss you derl anne

My family member is homeless and living here. Ive been keeping track of them and from what Ive been told and what Ive seen in my loved one is that theyre being treated and cared for better than other places. They give them food, clothing, their own bed. Im thankful there is a place like this around because my family members appearance and health went from not looking so good to, so much better. My family member isnt homeless because of drugs, but has told me there is a separate part for people trying to recover. Shes made some friends here too. Thank you so much for opening your doors and caring for people, no matter where they came from. 🙏♥️

Friendly people. It dedicates itself to helping women and children in need. Clean campus

A couple of years ago I called for help after having been sort of stranded in the Seattle area. I had money but there were no hotels or motels available. I was in a really bad state having had just visited my dying mother. Id been drinking and was so sad I wanted to die. When 911 transferred my call (because it wasnt a life threatening event) I told of my situation and the woman on the phone asked if Id been drinking. I was honest. She suggested I go sit in a coffee shop and sober up. Real nice.Had she just offered up a place to stay for the night, which I believe is what missions are there for, Id have likely written a big fat check once I did sober up. I have no way of proving that, but Im a nice person that way. Fortunately I found kindness from a couple of strangers, one who let me spend the night in his storage unit. I wish I could locate those two people as Id love to say how much I will never forget them.

Thank you Hope Place! You were there when I needed you... didnt like being locked in the building for weeks, that was hell. I couldnt even go to church that was really wrong because it caused me to become very depressed so I finally had to leave.I think the program will figure it out and get better some day. Thank you for being there for people who need a program. You should treat people on a case by case basis like you really claim to. I was treated unfairly and I had no voice in the matter. They know what Im saying is true. ❤️

A dear friend of mine is sober & drug free after 54 years. Long Live Union Gospel Mission-Hope Place for Women in Seattle, Wa.Im so thankful for Christian Organizations that know God can & will set the captive free. Blessings

I cant wait to come back & volunteer during Thanksgiving 2019. And actually Volunteer!!!! Last year was my first time volunteering with my job, but then found out the catering company i was working for paid us holiday pay to volunteer. But! Im so glad to return this year and donate my time and compassion.

Best shelter in Town if you can get in. Took me about a month to get in this place. You have to call everyday. Trust the process, they will help you! Stayed for 6 months and Got housed in a 3 bedroom townhome.

Ive seen some pretty beautiful testimonies come out of Hope Place. A complete inspiration, Thank you Hope Place for all that you do to make the world a better place.

Amazing place, awesome staff. Definitely can assist you in turning your life around from the disease of addiction! Ive been blessed to have made 2 stops there throughout my recovery journey and just blessed beyond measure.

Wonderful place to be when youre wounded and broken. I came out a new woman. I cant express my appreciation enough. Thanks, from Angelia H😉

I was sent to hope place in 2011.... I was a mess forced there by drug court...it was exactly what I needed ..I needed the rigorous schedule and the Bible to cling to, the graduations, mandatory fun fridays,joshia leading chores..and that wild woman who believed in faith healing for real...well it all added up to I am alive today....honestly my choices after wards werent the best but they were better....now I have been clean for years I have a permanet home just jump through their ridiculous hoo p s and show you are willing to work and you will be fine

Its a place where we addicts can go for help or to help others to recover.nice place
