Union Mission received a generous $5,000 donation from Vaden Chevrolet Pooler during a special check presentation on Tuesday, November 2nd at the Vaden Chevrolet Pooler dealership. The donation will support Union Mission’s Emergency Housing Programs that provide housing and customized services for clients to exit homelessness.

“Union Mission is such a force for good in our local communities,” said Jane Vaden Thacher, President of Vaden Automotive. “November is National Homeless Awareness Month and we are happy to help those in need and promote the services available at Union Mission. As the season of giving approaches, we hope others will join the cause.”

Union Mission’s 90-day Emergency Housing Programs provide basic human needs including food, housing, clothing, transportation access to mental healthcare, employment support, as well as intensive case management and community referrals that will further support their ability to become independent members of the community. In 2020, Union Mission helped transition 667 men, women and children from the streets of Savannah to safe, stable housing along with providing over 78,200 meals and 97,130 nights of housing.
