SAN FRANCISCO, CA December 23nd, 2008 Every guest that walks through the door at St. Anthony Dining Room on Christmas Day will be given a gift bag with a hat, pair of socks, and chocolate bar to go with their ham dinner.
Our guests are grateful for the smallest things- a hot meal, a new pair of socks. Some of our volunteers and donors really wanted to offer a little something for our guests on Christmas Day, and with the numbers of people that are coming to us, we are fortunate to be able to do anything at all. Donations are making the difference for San Franciscos oldest private social services agency which is dedicated to serving the poor, and which anticipates serving close to 4,000 meals on Christmas Day.
Christmas Day marks the last day of St. Anthonys Curbside Holiday Drive, where donations of food, clothing, and monetary donations can be made by driving up at curbside, so donors dont even have to leave their cars, from 9am to 3pm. Donated items are distributed free of charge to San Franciscos most needy residents.
For 58 years St. Anthony Foundation has provided free, life sustaining support for the poor and homeless. St. Anthony Foundations programs help heal individuals and families by providing a gateway to solutions to poverty, including a Dining Room which serves 2,600 meals every day, a Technology Lab/Employment Program, a Drug and Alcohol Recovery Program, and a Free Medical Clinic. St. Anthony Foundation does not accept any federal, state, or local government money for its programs, and is entirely funded by private donations.
