Heavybit Serves 300+ Meals to Homeless
In August, Heavybit staff and members volunteered to serve two lunches to homeless seniors at the Episcopal Community Services’ The Sanctuary. In just two Friday afternoons we fed more than 300 individuals.
The Sanctuary is two blocks from Heavybit’s Clubhouse and contributes to harm reduction and housing services for some of the South of Market neighborhood’s most at-risk individuals.
As part of our commitment to contributing to the community we look forward to building out our volunteer program with the help of our members. To suggest a volunteer organization or outing email dana@heavybit.com. To contribute to the Sanctuary visit helpsfhomeless.org.
