Since 1917, Buffalo City Mission has seen the City of Buffalo and its people through hard times on every level imaginable. Through the widespread devastation of the Great Depression to the current economic downturn in our city, the Mission has opened its doors to help men, women and children restore hope, dignity and lives.

As a 100% Privately funded 501(c)3 Non-Profit organization, the Buffalo City Mission is solely funded through donations from individuals, organizations, churches and grants here in our City of Good Neighbors. For over 100 years, the Mission has met the needs of the poor and the homeless. Looking around our city, you will see our work is far from over.

Each year, more men, women and children come to us for help. At the same time, their needs become increasingly complex. Providing food and shelter to people in crisis is simply not enough, which is why the BCM also offers education programing, long-term transitional housing, recovery programs, counseling, work and life-skills training, childcare, birth-Pre-K education programs, after school programming, on-site mental health services, an on-site health clinic staffed by Jericho Road, as well as partners with well over 80 community partners in WNY. We do all that we can to be a "one-stop-shop" for an individual or family in need.

We also offer outreach programs to prevent homelessness for individuals and families in the low-income community, serving over 600 meals a day between our 2 facilities, 50% of which are served to individuals that are not currently living with us as well as maintaining a free Agape Shop where members of our community can receive practical items, clothes and food free of charge. 

It will take all of us—individuals, businesses, organization, service groups and foundations—to meet the challenges ahead.
