Wyoming Rescue Mission Calls on Community as Year-End Matching Challenge Reaches Final Hours Casper, Wyoming — With just hours remaining in its year-end matching challenge, Wyoming Rescue Mission is urging the community to act now to maximize their impact for individuals and families facing homelessness. Through the generosity of anonymous donors, every gift made to Wyoming Rescue Mission will be matched dollar for dollar—up to $50,000—until midnight on December 31. This limited-time opportunity allows supporters to double their support for critical services, including emergency shelter, hot meals, recovery programs, and mental health counseling. “Every donation given right now has twice the power to change lives,” said Executive Director Brad Hopkins. “This matching challenge will extend urgently needed hope and healing to those moving from homelessness to community independence.” Matching contributions will provide essential, life-saving care, including: • $100 doubled to $200 for meals and compassionate care • $250 doubled to $500 for shelter and recovery services • $500 doubled to $1000 to care for families and children and provide counseling for all guests All gifts made by midnight on December 31 are tax-deductible and will be fully matched, up to $50,000, helping Wyoming Rescue Mission meet urgent needs during one of the most critical seasons of the year. This is the final opportunity in 2025 to make a year-end gift that restores hope and transforms lives. Donations can be made online at wyomission.org/donate, delivered in person to 331 N. Park St., Casper, WY, or mailed to P.O. Box 2030, Casper, WY 82602. Mailed donations must be postmarked by Dec. 31, 2025.

CASPER, WY — Wyoming Rescue Mission’s 12th Annual Fishin’ for the Mission was a heartfelt celebration of lives transformed, stories shared, and hope restored. Preliminary estimates show the event raised $128,417.50, all going directly to support the Wyoming Rescue Mission’s programs of providing hot meals, safe shelter, counseling, case management, recovery programs, and care. The event began on June 4, 2025, with the Guide Meet & Greet Dinner at The M —a gathering where mission partners, guides, and guests came together to connect over stories of redemption and resilience. Renowned sculptor Chris Navarro introduced a bronze sculpture he made exclusively for the Wyoming Rescue Mission. Titled “Hanging On,” the bronze features a bear cub clinging to a tree– a powerful reminder that even in the hardest times, holding on can lead you to higher ground. The bronze was sold in a live auction, with all proceeds benefiting the Wyoming Rescue Mission.

Graduations are a big deal here at Wyoming Rescue Mission! Our Discipleship Recovery Program is broken up into three phases, with the intention of helping restore people back to society through the love of Christ. At the end of a semester, we celebrate those who have graduated from one phase to the next, especially those who have graduated out into sober living. This semester we had 26 graduates! We had 13 graduates from phase 1, 8 from phase 2, and 5 from phase 3. Nothing will bring you more joy than hearing the stories of how God is lavishly changing these wonderful people from the inside out. “Behold, I am making all things new.” Revelation 21:5 There is no doubt that Christ is doing a great work here at Wyoming Rescue Mission. Just listen to these stories of transformation yourself, and hear how God is making all things new, and re-writing stories from brokenness to healing.
