The goal of creating this special COVID-19 series is to shine a spotlight on all of the wonderfully important nonprofits and their staff that support our community in ways that we may not even be aware of. We hope that our series will provide a platform for these important voices to share what services they provide and how they are struggling to deal with the impact of the COVID 19 pandemic on their operations, services and sustainability.

We hope that our series will provide a platform for these important voices to share what services they provide and how they are struggling to deal with the impact of the COVID 19 pandemic on their operations, services and sustainability.

Each episode of the series features voices from a cross section of organizations that make up the fabric of our community. Our fellow community member’s voice brings a unique perspective on how they and we are dealing with the issues facing our community during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The initial twelve episodes of the series are part of a series of interviews we conducted through our participation in the Bay Area Video Coalition and their SF Commons program which produced the TV Show titled “San Francisco Nonprofits Spotlight”. The first twelve interviews were conducted via Zoom from April to June 2020 during the height of the first phase of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Shelter In Place requirements.

As you explore the episode pages below, and enjoy listening to the insights, points of view and personal stories from the voices of these change makers and their nonprofits featured in the series; Please consider making a donation and volunteering to provide a hand up to your fellow community members. We’d really appreciate your help in sharing out to your network all of the amazing work being performed by these nonprofits in San Francisco that help to inspire us all to work together during the COVID-19 pandemic.
