Each year, Portland Rescue Mission sends out dozens of Direct Mail packages to over 60,000 donors: Appeals, Annual Reports, Thank-You Cards, Newsletters, Receipts, and more. While every mailing is important, newsletters are especially important as they tell the stories of hope and life-restoration that individuals go through at the mission.

The newsletters are filled with current mission events, letter from the executive director, participant graduations, personal stories and testimonies, year end reviews and numbers, care partner profiles, and so much more. Each mailing is an opportunity to share with donors about how their gift makes an impact.

The following spreads and covers are from newsletters I’ve produced in the past two years at Portland Rescue Mission.
