As with any place there's issues but the hierarchy of this shelter do care, their fair and they go out of their way to help. Their slogan is God is love and I believe they try hard to practice what they preach. Dispite what anyone says, this is the cleanest shelter I have ever seen. The tempiture is comfortable and the beds are really nice. For the other people that have left reviews and said that this shelter is dirty. It's a complete lie. Pastor Paul Pusey

You must go through the Gateway Center first and if the bearded guy who has special needs allows you to, maybe you can go through the Christian Living Program. Just remember to be gentle with him. He doesn't know any better.

Go to Charity Navigator for a report. The last Charity Navigator report for the Allentown Rescue Mission was 2017 where they scored 75.21 or two stars out of a possible four. As a 501(c)3 they failed to provide a direct link to their IRS Form 990 which provides transparency of financial operations which donors can utilize to determine the efficacy their financial support.
