Hi, my name is Denise Mills; and I work for The Durham Rescue Mission.  The Durham Rescue Mission is Durham, NC’s oldest and largest long-term homeless shelter, providing food, clothing, permanent supportive housing, vocational training, Biblical counseling, job placement, education, accountability, and much more to broken men, women, and children in Durham, Chapel Hill, and Raleigh.

We have 4 big events each year to help those in our community not just the 505 people we serve daily.  We reach out to thousands of people who are in need.  One of our goals for our back-to-school events is to put a period kit in every young girl’s bag.  Getting your back-to-school supplies many people just think of paper, pens, pencils, etc.  But little girls with low income or who don’t have someone to teach them about life changes need much more.  We want to help each one of them and with your help, we can make that happen.
