Let's Help YIGBY & UPLIFT Level UP San Diego!
We rise by lifting others. Kindness changes the world!
Thank you for joining my efforts to raise funds for two of my favorite nonprofits in San Diego! YIGBY Faith Community Housing and UPLIFT exist to make transformative impact in the lives of San Diego's vulnerable populations. I believe in both organizations wholeheartedly. I serve as the Faith Community Outreach Lead for YIGBY & Board Member for UPLIFT. More importantly, I have witnessed with my own eyes and heart the incredible impact that UPLIFT has on the lives of those served and the potential of YIGBY to address our housing crisis. Here is more info and links to their websites so you can learn more and see for yourself.
About YIGBY - Yes In God's Back Yard - Beyond NIMBYs and YIMBYs – YIGBY offers a third option in the housing crisis conversation, building affordable housing for vulnerable populations on surplus Faith Community property. www.yigby.org
YIGBY URGENT Needs - funding for Bethel AME Proof of Concept project permits, closer everyday!
About UPLIFT - Urban People Living in Faith & Trust - Uplifting San Diego’s inner-city communities by transforming the lives of people in need with Homeless Services & Student Services. https://www.upliftsandiego.org/
UPLIFT URGENT COVID related needs include:
- funding for added staff time & equipment in transitioning our FREE Kids At Heart Tutoring from site-based sessions to an all virtual platform to support distance learning for low income students, who are especially at risk of falling behind in school right now.
- flex funding for homeless housing support to help with COVID Convention Center resident & motel family placement. About 1200 unsheltered there. No pressure!
Our YIGBY & UPLIFT Team activity:
- RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS!
- SUGGESTED GOAL:100 per Team Member over 30 days = 3 per day, extra on weekends ♥
(Yes I did just let you go in front of me at the market, feed you parking meter, private chat you that your kids were making faces behind you in the important zoom meeting...Kindness changes the world!)
