Earlier this month, Silicon Valley’s very own Google came by to volunteer during a day of computer repairs and training at St. Anthony’s Tenderloin Tech Lab.

St. Anthony Foundation has had the privilege of partnering with members of the corporate community for many years. We have worked with a variety of corporate service projects from company wide service days to individual volunteers offering time and professional skills through their company. Corporate volunteers have served meals in our Dining Room, planted gardens in our residential programs, conducted mock interviews in our Employment Program and hosted bingo games at our senior center.

To inquire about your company partnering with St. Anthony Foundation contact the Justice Education/Volunteer Advocacy Manager, Angelina Cahalan, at abcahalan@stanthonysf.org or (415) 592-2727.

Guests and clients can bring their computers or CPUs, where St. Anthony Foundation staff, Reliatech technicians and SF Connect volunteers will diagnose and repair common problems. Demonstrations of free software will take place throughout the day. You can also find out about technology training and other free community resources.

Free to all residents of the Tenderloin and to anyone who is homeless or marginally housed.
