Rescue Mission Food Drive

From November 1 to December 22

What's Rescue Mission Food Drive?

Lancaster coming together!

This holiday season alone, Water Street Mission will serve nearly 45,000 meals to people experiencing homelessness. Additionally, we will give thousands of bags of groceries to those in need.  That’s why we are asking our Lancaster community for a helping hand!
