Serving Greater Cincinnati since 1924, City Gospel Mission empowers men, women and at-risk youth to break the cycle of poverty and despair. We collaborate with local churches to offer a variety of one-to-one, relationship-focused programs and services to equip those in need with the spiritual, emotional and physical skills and resources to achieve life transformation.
City Gospel Mission annually serves 121,000 hot and nutritious meals and provides 24,000 nights of safe shelter to the homeless and hurting. We also offer comprehensive men’s and women’s recovery programs, which include transitional and supportive housing and aftercare. Additionally, City Gospel Mission offers hurting men and women with various other resources and services, including a work program, enrichment courses, chapel services, Thanksgiving and Christmas outreach programs and more.
City Gospel Mission also annually impacts more than 8,000 at-risk youth in over 40 Greater Cincinnati neighborhoods through 10 youth programs. These programs include: Whiz Kids tutoring and mentoring, summer camps, college scholarships, basketball, performing arts, dirt-bike riding, cycling, youth groups, and more. The goal of each program is to pair an at-risk child with a caring adult as a way to help foster spiritual, emotional and physical growth and educational development in the child’s life.
