🎵 New Music Alert: In My Shoes by Daniel Poesis
Homelessness doesn’t always start with a choice. Sometimes, it begins with just one setback: a lost job, a medical bill, a family crisis.
In My Shoes invites you to see Kansas City’s homeless neighbors through a new lens: their humanity, their stories, and the fragile line between stability and hardship.
Take a listen and a moment to step into the shoes of the guests we help daily.

We had a wonderful time with KCTV5 on MyKC Live this week! It’s always a blessing to share with Kansas City how your support helps us serve those experiencing homelessness.
Right now, our Celebrate Hope campaign is providing warm meals, safe shelter, and life-changing support for our neighbors in need.
You can make a real difference this season.

Sometimes, just one setback is all it takes.
A lost job.
A medical bill.
A family crisis.
Homelessness in Kansas City can affect anyone.
On Monday, December 15th, we’re releasing a powerful new lyric video for a song by Daniel Poesis about the lives of our homeless neighbors.
When life takes a tough turn, hope is waiting at City Union Mission.
Watch the video, share it, and imagine life from someone else’s perspective.

This season can be the hardest for Kansas City’s homeless. Kevin knows this struggle firsthand. After losing his brother, his job, his vehicle, and even his ID, he found himself living on the streets.
But with the support of City Union Mission, Baser Baptist Church, and a caring probation officer, Kevin entered the Christian Life Program, and today, he walks in freedom and purpose.
You can bring hope like this to others. Every gift, meal, and volunteer hour makes a difference. Will you help us this year? 💛

❄️ Preparing for the Colder Months Ahead
This December, our Men’s Emergency Center will increase its capacity to over 100 beds to serve more men experiencing homelessness during the coldest months of the year.
While this is a big achievement, our hearts and vision tell us there’s more we can do. To increase capacity further, we need to purchase bed railings, a simple addition that provides a safe place for more men to sleep.
Will you help us provide warmth, safety, and hope this winter?
Every gift through our Celebrate Hope campaign brings us closer to reaching more lives.
💛 Give today and help expand our capacity: https://cityunionmission.org/celebrate-hope/
