Union Rescue Mission (URM) is one of the largest missions of its kind in America – bringing help and hope to men, women and children experiencing homelessness in Downtown Los Angeles.  URM was founded in 1891 by Lyman Stewart.  During those early days, URM took to the streets in gospel wagons to offer food, clothing and salvation to the less fortunate.  Over the years, URM has continued and expanded its efforts to feed both the body and the soul, helping individuals and families break the cycle of poverty and achieve self-sufficiency.  To learn more, go to their website urm.org.
