Help your neighbors in need

During the COVID-19 pandemic, San Franciscans have stepped up to help our neighbors. You’ve helped people access food and basic necessities, and have checked in on their well-being.

Your fellow San Franciscans need your help more than ever before. Let’s keep the generosity going.

Support your neighbors by volunteering and donating to San Francisco-based organizations. Your contributions of time and money will help make this challenging time brighter for us all!

How to give

Volunteering

There are many ways to volunteer safely. You can do:

  • Individual meal drop-offs
  • Phone calls from home
  • Outdoor, socially distanced volunteer shifts

If you choose to volunteer in person, remember to check your health, wear your mask, and stay 6 feet apart. We can all stay safe while helping each other.

Donating

You can help your neighbors in need by donating to support organizations and programs that provide food, housing, and other essentials. 

 

Many organizations looking for volunteers will also accept donations!
