How to Give

For over a century, the Allentown Rescue Mission has provided provided a safe and welcoming refuge to men in crisis across the Greater Lehigh Valley.

To maintain our facility and meet the needs of the men in our care, the Allentown Rescue Mission is in urgent need of food, supplies, and gift cards. 

Please consider purchasing these items and dropping them off at our facility. Donations can be dropped off Monday – Thursday, 8:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m., and Friday, 8:30 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. at our front door where we are offering curbside pickup.

Donations can be dropped off after hours. Simply ring the doorbell or call (484) 809-8719 and someone will assist you.
