Gentrification is displacing the Coalition on Homelessness

The building the Coalition on Homelessness is currently housed in has been sold. The new owners are tearing it down.

So, after 16 years of calling 468 Turk our home, we have to move everything to another office.

The upside is that we’re signing a new, long-term lease at a building owned by Hospitality House. Our new home will be just a few blocks down Turk Street, ADA-accessible, and best of all, permanent. The downside is that this move is unexpected and comes with many unanticipated costs.

We're hoping to complete our move by late October 2019.

This move was unexpected, and comes with many unanticipated costs. We'd deeply appreciate it if you could contribute extra to fund the following:

New wiring, phone system, and internet: $11,000

Rent for transitional period: $4,000

Moving company, bulk paper shredding, dumpster: $4,000

Specialty moving services: $1,000

Total needed: $20,000

The Coalition on Homelessness does not accept government funding, and two-thirds of our budget comes from individual donors in our community. We are grateful for that support, which sustains our tireless efforts to end poverty and homelessness. Please donate to and share this crucial fundraising effort if you can!
