With a population of more than 8.6 million, New York City is a thriving, dynamic place. But within this mass of people living in the city, there are nearly 79,000 who are homeless, while others are enduring a poverty rate of more than 43 percent. Send Relief missionaries Taylor Field and Andrew Mann have a goal of revitalizing communities by building relationships with people from all backgrounds and walks of life. Send Relief is partnering with Graffiti 2 Community Ministries as we share their desire to “Meet the Need – First."
It is in this time of urgent need that you have the greatest opportunity to give practical assistance, make personal connections, and share the gospel.

The Hub: Urban Ministries in Shreveport, LA, is on a mission to give everyone in our city access to a restored life!

The Lovewell Center is a membership-based model of ministry that provides those in poverty and homelessness a way to earn the resources they need through attending classes and counseling. Purchased serves women and children who have experienced human trafficking through multiple programs and outreaches aimed at providing rescue and recovery to every woman and child experiencing exploitation in our city.
Mission groups engage across all of the ministry lanes of The Hub and get hands-on, personal opportunities to engage and serve. This includes homeless outreach, motel outreach, serving meals to those in poverty, and running the resource stores in our ministry facilities. Our mission trips are geared at not only mission activity but training & immersive education so that you can take what you learn back to your own city!

Toronto Application
6/6/2026 — 6/12/2026
Toronto is Canada’s largest city and a world leader in business, finance, technology, entertainment, and culture. Its large population of immigrants from all over the globe has also made Toronto one of the most multicultural cities in the world.
The city of Hamilton, where the Send Relief Ministry Centre is located, is unique for its distinctive urban feel and vibrant arts and culture. Ideally located in the heart of the country’s most popular travel destinations, Hamilton lies halfway between Toronto and Niagara Falls, less than an hour from each.
Hamilton is not without its challenges. The city faces severe housing affordability and food insecurity issues, and 1 in 4 children lives under the poverty line. There are over 200 different languages spoken within the city limits, and it is not uncommon for 30-40 different languages to be spoken at local public schools. In Hamilton, Arabic is now the most common language spoken at home after English.
What will you do?
Your mission experience offers an incredible opportunity to partner with our Send Relief Ministry Centre, local churches, and communities in the city and surrounding areas. As our new ministry center begins serving displaced individuals, newcomers, and underserved populations, you’ll have the chance to make a meaningful difference by addressing both physical and spiritual needs. Whether you’re engaging in compassion ministry projects, supporting local organizations, or working alongside local churches, your service will leave a lasting impact on the community.
