Spreading Kindness, Sharing Hope

We are a private 501(c)(3) foundation in San Francisco helping neighbors experiencing homelessness and children from low‑income families live with dignity and opportunity.

Our Vision

Every person deserves dignity and hope

We envision a community where people experiencing homelessness and children in hardship can access essentials, safety, and pathways to a brighter future.

Our Mission

From essentials to opportunity

We mobilize volunteers and partners to deliver essential supplies, learning tools, and compassionate programs that build connection and uplift lives.

Core Programs

Simple acts create meaningful change. Our three flagship initiatives operate year‑round across San Francisco neighborhoods.

Meals of Care

Weekly hot meals and hydration for people experiencing homelessness, paired with hygiene kits and resource guides.

Steps of Hope

Donations of shoes and clothing for children in need—prioritizing fit, comfort, and school readiness.

Light up Learning

Micro‑scholarships and school supplies for high‑effort students from low‑income families.
