Heart to Heart with Hanna Hart!

Interfaith Winter Shelter

We are delighted to announce that UUSF will once again be hosting the Interfaith Winter Shelter this year from February 12 to March 4.

A partnership among San Francisco Interfaith Council, the SF Department of Homeless Services, and Episcopal Community Services, the IWS operates in different area churches during the coldest, wettest months of the year, providing shelter and meals to homeless men and women each night. For 30+ years, our congregation has hosted 60–70 guests—men and women—each night during the residency. It is an important ministry of the church and a vital service to the community.

We are looking for volunteers to help cook and serve breakfast Monday through Friday and folks who can help cook and serve dinner on six designated nights. We will also need volunteers to help with food procurement and with evening hosting. All volunteers must be vaccinated (boosters are advised!). We will be observing COVID protocols to make volunteering as safe as possible. If you are interested in volunteering in any capacity, follow this link to sign up, or you can contact Gordon Sharafinski at [email protected], who will be coordinating volunteers, or Hanna Hart at [email protected]. The shelter is always a favorite opportunity to make a difference!
