Thank you for joining us for Catalyst 2020!

Even though we couldn’t be all be together in person, tonight was so exciting! It's powerful to know that all across the greater Seattle area, people like you joined together to be Catalysts during a time like this.

 

Your generous support shows your belief that every homeless neighbor deserves to be beloved, redeemed and restored.

If you're interested in giving, there are four simple ways to do so:

  1. Click a giving level on the right-hand side of your screen
  2. Text GIVE to (206) 279-2179

  4. Email us at catalyst@ugm.org to give via a Donor Advised Fund, check, or to make a pledge

 

Relive the excitement of the night!

 

 

Go through the Immersive Experience again:

Experience first-hand the steps it takes to leave homelessness behind and with God’s help, move toward a healthier, thriving life. No matter how dire the situation, there is always hope.

 

As the video plays, you will be prompted to make choices, ultimately affecting your story’s narrative. When a decision pops up on your screen, discuss with your group, and click either option using your remote or mouse. Once you make your decision, the next part of your video will automatically launch. Each decision you make will lead you through the Mission’s vast programming, to recovery, and God’s hope for a new life.

 

Watch again, and share with your friends! Can you find all four of the different endings?

$1,000 Hand-Painted Art by Women of Hope Place

HAND-PAINTED AND FRAMED CANVAS ARTWORK FROM THE WOMEN OF HOPE PLACE
The Women of Hope Place artwork is individually painted, holding special and personal self-expression through guided instruction. As every Hope Place recovery program artist is guided step-by-step to express her creativity, she
is reminded she’s a beautiful creation herself, made in the image of God. All of the pieces are as beautiful and unique as the ladies who painted them. This framed piece of art can hang on your wall in your home or your office as an
inspiring reminder of the life-changing hope brought out through each artist. Each painting represents a new life!

A staff member of Seattle's Union Gospel Mission will be in touch to coordinate the pick-up of your piece. Each piece is unique and may vary from the displayed images, which represent just some of the special art work. 


Thank you: Women of Hope Place and Volunteer Art Teacher, Terry Wilson

$1,000 Give the Gift of Scholarship

Seattle's Union Gospel Mission partners with Northwest University in Kirkland to provide program residents the opportunity to pursue degree programs at greatly reduced tuition costs. With this opportunity, residents accomplish something they never thought possible, setting them on the path for a successful career. From there, many choose to give back and serve others. 

With your support, SUGM can offer scholarships to residents, breaking down hurdles that stand in the way. 

Your gift will go towards this scholarship fund. We have 25 opportunities to give $1,000, making 5 separate $5,000 scholarships to NWU.
