Overview

Mission

Mdp foundations operates a "soup" kitchen to feed and provide other basic services to the unhoused and disenfranchised in the city and county of san franciso.

What it reported doing in 2025

Continued narrative for psa 1 in 2019 mdp foundation became the fiscal agent for the burrito project which provided burritos that were delivered through san francisco to people living with housing and food insecurity. Ln addition to handing out food to individuals, our program reached two navigation centers, larkin street youth services locations and the homeless youth alliance locations. The covid 19 pandemic directly affected the organization and its ability to reach a population at risk with for food insecurity; however, mdp continued to provide "take out" meals and other services to the unhoused and disenfranchised. As covid restrictions were eased, midp began to transition back into a communal eating hospital house in 2022.
