The Phoenix Rescue Mission gives corporate sponsors and volunteers the opportunity to give back by taking a ride-along in their Hope Coach van.

Lerner and Rowe staff members went on a ride-along with Chaplain Cliff Danley and were given the opportunity to learn more about often overlooked Phoenix neighborhoods and homeless community members.

They were also able to offer assistance to homeless individuals and families by offering much needed food, water, and personal care items.

The following are comments shared by one of our staff members about the ride-along:

“Cliff [Chaplain Cliff Danley, Hope Coach Driver] was great and so full of stories and spirit. It was certainly a pleasure to spend the morning with this wonderful person. We were able to tour the shelter facility down by Baseline, as well as the new Changing Lives facility for women and children.

These facilities were awesome and very inspirational as what kind and generous individuals can accomplish when they are put together for a good cause. The staff, volunteers, and residents were all so kind and friendly…“ – Jennifer A. Hornback, Lerner and Rowe Employee
