Kelowna's Gospel Mission

For more than 40 years, Kelowna’s Gospel Mission has been a beacon of hope in the community, providing food, shelter, and compassionate care to those experiencing homelessness or hardship. Their work helps people rebuild their lives through support, connection, and dignity.

A few students from Okanagan Bible School offered coffee and conversation to visitors at the Kelowna City Park. By 1985, those students opened a drop-in centre, then a soup kitchen, an emergency shelter, and a thrift store.

Tug 6 Coffee Roasters is proud to partner with Kelowna’s Gospel Mission to support the incredible impact they make every day. When you choose Tug 6, you’re not just brewing a great cup of coffee, you’re helping fund essential services for those who need them most. A portion of the proceeds from every bag sold will be donated to Kelowna’s Gospel Mission. Together, we can make every sip count and help create a stronger, more caring community.
