Homelessness is more than just About Us
At Union Gospel Mission (UGM) Dallas, we believe in the power of hope, transformation, and community. For over 75 years, we have been a source of hope for those experiencing homelessness in North Texas, providing not just shelter, but a pathway to a better life. Our mission is to restore dignity, offer hope, and empower men, women, and children to rebuild their lives, guided by the love of Christ.
Every person who comes through our doors has a story—a story of struggle, pain, and loss. But with your support, these stories can turn into tales of triumph, resilience, and new beginnings. We offer a comprehensive range of services, from emergency shelter and hot meals to counseling, job training, and spiritual guidance. Our programs are designed not just to meet immediate needs, but to help individuals break the cycle of homelessness and achieve long-term stability.
ONE YEAR AGO WE ASKED YOU TO TAKE A LEAP OF FAITH!
WHY DONATE TO UGM DALLAS
A lack of shelter—the men, women, and children we serve are our neighbors, people who have fallen on hard times and are struggling to find their way.
Your donation is more than just a gift; it’s a lifeline that can bring hope, healing, and a chance for a fresh start.
Your support allows:
Safe Shelter
A place where individuals can feel secure, rest, and start their journey to recovery.
Nourishing Meals
For many, a meal at UGM Dallas may be their first in days. We provide warm, nutritious food that nourishes both body and soul.
Life-Changing Programs
From addiction recovery and mental health services to job training and educational opportunities,
our programs address the root causes of homelessness and pave the way for lasting change.
Spiritual Care
We believe in the healing power of faith. Our chaplains and volunteers offer spiritual guidance and support,
helping individuals reconnect with their sense of purpose and self-worth.
The Impact of Your Gift
When you donate to UGM Dallas, you’re not just giving money—you’re giving someone the chance to reclaim their life.
The purpose of the Union Gospel Mission Dallas is to provide God's hope to hungry, homeless, hurting and helpless people in Dallas. We partner with others to provide food, shelter, clothing, transportation, job readiness training, counseling, healthcare, temporary housing and affording housing to those in need. At Union Gospel Mission Dallas, we are transforming lives to end homelessness one person at a time.
We are asking you to help us meet our 'God-Sized' Goals:
Community Center & Gym: A safe place for kids to play and be a kid.
Search and Rescue Vehicle for Inclement Weather : The ice storms have now became a staple of Texas winters. Our search and rescue team is in need of vehicles that will be beneficial in picking up the unhoused to both take the burden off of law enforcement and, also, not becoming stranded.
HVAC : We want to provide a safe place for people to stay as they consider next steps. As we seek funding to improve our HVAC, portable misters and warmers will meet a great immediate need.
Step-Up Beds : Our innovative Step-Up bed installations will help maximize the space of our men's shelter. Traditional bunk beds are unhelpful in most shelters when servicing the disabled or elderly.
Sustainable Upgrades: Generators & solar power to cut costs and steward resources wisely. Recently, our shelter for women and children experience a black out that lasted for a significant amount of time. We need your help keeping the lights, heat, kitchen running in emergencies where the power will go out.
Union Gospel Mission Dallas, according to God's Holy Word, believes that every Christian is required by God to "do biblical justice". In Micah 6:8, the scripture says, "Mankind, he has told each of you what is good and what it is the Lord requires of you: to act justly, to love faithfulness, and to walk humbly with your God" (Christian Standard Bible). We seek to live out God's justice and faithfulness daily in a humble manner. We aspire to display agape love to everyone we encounter.
