About Us

Our Story

In 2015, Urban Angels SF started with just three seniors taking up collections to deliver hot burritos to those living on the streets. Today our Angel Runs deliver sustenance, hope and dignity through ‘profound hospitality’. We go to our most vulnerable neighbors - those living in tents and those living at the poverty level - build relationships and help provide them with necessities needed to live decent lives; clothing, food, water, bedding, and pandemic supplies such as face masks and hand sanitizer. We provide their children with school supplies and gifts during the holiday season. We are now a growing community of caring volunteers banding together to make a positive difference right in our own communities.

In response to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Urban Angels SF reviewed the impact of our coronavirus mitigation efforts, resulting in our first “Special Report” which documents our work from March 2020–January of 2022. In this time period, our services grew exponentially from an average of 3,000 hot meals served per year to over 7,500 including 9,000 bottles of water, 20,000 face masks, 6,000 bottles of hand sanitizer and 3,000 pairs of gloves.

As the pandemic continued, our volunteers continued to support our most underserved neighbors with basic supplies essential for living lives with hope and dignity.

Our wonderful and generous donors have contined to provide Urban Angels SF with the vitally important financial support needed to fund our programs and help us cover our expenses.

It truly takes a village; our volunteers, our donors, our staff, our board of directors and our partners. And our grateful guests.

“Until everyone has enough…. we will continue to serve.”

Amen!
