Habitat for Humanity builds homes and sustains affordable homeownership opportunities for families in the Greater San Francisco area. Pictured above is a (now complete!) site that Zander helped build, providing 8 local families with housing in San Francisco’s Diamond Heights neighborhood.
-
The Women's Building is a women-led non-profit arts and education community center which advocates self-determination, gender equality and social justice. The four-story building located in San Francisco’s Mission District rents to multiple tenants and serves over 20,000 women a year. It is also (in our humble opinions!) one of the most remarkable murals and contributions towards public art in our city.

Glide is a nationally recognized center for social justice based in San Francisco’s Tenderloin district. Dedicated to fighting systemic injustices, creating pathways out of poverty and crisis, and transforming lives, Glide strives to create a radically inclusive, just, and loving community mobilized to alleviate suffering – a mission we deeply believe in.
Glide is a place of hope, meaning, and purpose, guided by spiritual values and exemplifying love in action. So, supporting Glide during this season in which we commit to a lifetime of love in action towards one another – and towards our greater community – feels incredibly special.

826 Valencia is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting under-resourced students ages six to eighteen with their creative and expository writing skills. We’re particularly moved by this organization’s mission to help students cultivate a sense of wonder by inspiring imagination and creativity, and to transform students’ relationship with writing by building their confidence and pride. The flagship location also happens to be delightfully located behind a whimsical pirate store on Valencia St – which we encourage you to visit if you’ll be in town for a few days!
