Thank you for joining my efforts to raise funds for two great Agencies! Downtown San Diego Partnership Clean & Safe Family Reunification Program and UPLIFT exist to make transformative impact in the lives of San Diego's unsheltered population. 

Both these groups are worthy of your support. I am CEO & Executive Director of  San Diego Downtown Partnership. The Clean & Safe Family Reunification Program is a wonderful community service we provide.   UPLIFT serves as a Clean & Safe partner providing essential CA IDs, volunteer advocacy & move-in assistance. More importantly, I know the incredible impact these groups have on the lives of those they serve. Here are links to our websites to learn more:

About DSDP Clean & Safe Family Reunification Program - let's get you home!

One of our most successful efforts to reduce homelessness is the Family Reunification Program, which is designed to reconnect homeless individuals with their families and loved ones across the country. The program enables individuals to rebuild the much-needed support systems crucial to ending the cycle of homelessness. Since 2012, more than 3,500 people have been helped through the Family Reunification Program. Through support from the San Diego Housing Commission, Sharp HealthCare, the County of San Diego, Travelers Aid and many other generous sponsors.
