Brotherhood Mission
Updated: August 10, 2010
WELCOME TO THE BROTHERHOOD MISSION'S TEAM PAGE!
The Philadelphia Brotherhood Rescue Mission, located in the Fishtown neighborhood, is a Christian ministry that brings Christ's healing power to any person in crisis through programs of rescue and recovery. The Mission serves thousands of men, women and children every day of the year with emergency shelter, residential recovery, transitional housing and a food pantry for the community. Our shelter services and recovery programs serve men of all religious affiliations, and we encourage each man to draw strength from his higher power, whoever that may be.
Philadelphia Brotherhood Rescue Mission residents are referred by substance abuse rehabilitation centers, the criminal justice system, social service agencies, hospitals, Veterans Administration facilities, word of mouth referrals and churches.

TEAM LEADER: Dan Colameco
Dan is an avid runner and currently works in the Special Education Department at Radnor Middle School.
He has seen first hand the healing properties of running, both physically and spiritually.
Dan believes strongly in the redeeming possibilities of man, and subscribes to the idea that everyone who ever lifted themselves up by their boot straps had needed someone next to them to give them the boots. And he cannot think of an organization that better exemplifies this than Back on My Feet.
Dan would also like to thank his sister, Kate, for introducing him to Back on My Feet, and for her tireless and selfless service with the homeless population. She inspired him to get up for that first morning run, and he will always be grateful to her for that.
