Back in May, Andytown co-owner Michael was driving around San Francisco, delivering coffee for our Coffee For Heroes project. Amongst the deliveries to hospitals and senior care facilities, he had a stop at the St. Anthony Foundation in the Tenderloin. It was then that we connected with this amazing organization.
St. Anthony’s works to feed, clothe, heal and lift the spirits of San Franciscans in need. Every day, St. Anthony’s serves over 2400 meals in its dining room, and cares for over 4600 patients annually in its medical clinic. They also provide addiction and recovery support to 70 people daily, and provide 150 people with clean clothes every day. St. Anthony’s is the ultimate example of San Franciscans helping San Franciscans.
This year, in the middle of a pandemic, St. Anthony’s is celebrating 70 years of service. Unable to do many of their traditional fundraising and awareness events, they reached out to Andytown to spread the word about the work they are doing to the western side of San Francisco. We enthusiastically agreed.
Andytown is donating $1 for every bag of our Shore Leave Hook blend sold in the month of November to St. Anthony’s foundation so they can continue doing the amazing work of nourishing our fellow San Franciscans who are most in need. Support St. Anthony’s by grabbing a bag of Shore Leave Hook for your Thanksgiving dessert table, or visit their website to support directly.
