Chicago Rescue Mission’s Woman’s Shelter

cares for the Friendless “down-and-out” Woman. Our Shelter is not a “Rescue Home” in the ordinary sense of the word, but

A Place where a Clean Bed, Food, Coffee and Clothing may be Obtained by any Homeless Woman

not a subject for Police interference, for One or More nights as she needs; and where she is given Definite Aid to Immediate Employment and assured of shelter until she receives her week’s wages.

FIVE THOUSAND AND FORTY NIGHT’S LODGINGS

TOGETHER WITH

OVER SIX THOUSAND MEALS

have been furnished to cold, hungry, Stranded Girls and Women this year by Our Institution.

Seventy per Cent of These Have been Aided to Secure Honest Employment,

but scores have been turned away because we lacked Equipment, Warmth, Funds, etc., to aid them.

Our Work Reaches Every Slum and Redlight District in the City

the Hospitals, Prisons, Poorhouses, everywhere unfortunate women are found. We co-operate with Churches, Missions, Employment Bureaus, Charitable Institutions, etc., throughout the City Our Institution has Thirty-one Large Rooms
