Be Part of Something New & Life-Changing

Waterfront Mission has been transforming lives since 1949, and we’re not slowing down.
This past year, we expanded our support with vital new programs to meet urgent needs: providing overnight shelter for homeless women, helping individuals break free from addiction, and giving homeless individuals a place to safely heal after leaving the hospital.

 

Now, we invite you to stand with us.
Join us in supporting these life-changing programs that meet people where they are and guide them toward hope, healing, and lasting transformation.

Waterfront Women's Services - Providing Hope for Her

Every woman deserves a safe place to sleep.

Yet in 2024, the PIT Count survey found that on any given night an estimated 145 women in Escambia County were without shelter. In response to the need, Waterfront Mission opened a safe haven where homeless women in Pensacola receive not only overnight shelter and meals, but also the life-changing resources they need to rebuild.

Here, women find more than a bed, they discover healing, stability and hope.

Stand with women in need. Give today and help provide safety, dignity, and a fresh start.

*Numbers pulled from the 2024 PIT count survey.

LifeBuilder Recovery Program - Breaking Free from Addiction

lifebuilder-program

Addiction shatters lives. But hope can be found at Waterfront. The LifeBuilder Recovery Program is a 9-month, residential, faith-based recovery program helping men break free from addiction and rebuild their lives.

The program is made up of three phases, and this year, in order to provide better access to individuals along the Gulf Coast, we were able to expand Phase One to the Mobile Mission.

Through an intensive curriculum, compassionate one-on-one counseling, and a community of support, men are finding more than sobriety, they’re finding lasting transformation and a brighter future. 

Your gift helps men take their first steps toward hope, healing, and freedom.

Arukah Respite Center – Healing After Hospital Discharge

Imagine being in the hospital and getting released, but you’re homeless, and have nowhere to go. Waterfront’s Arukuah Respite Center partners with local hospitals so that homeless individuals have a safe, dignified place to recover. In a facility with medical beds, a dedicated case manager, and access to chaplains, healing is now a reality.

Help give homeless individuals a place to call home while they heal.
