Overview

Mission

Repairing homes, revitalizing communities, rebuilding lives.

What it reported doing in 2025

Our safe at home (sah) program provides year-round repairs and modifications that increase home health and safety for low-income san franciscans. Skilled volunteers install grab bars, raised toilet seats, and handrails. Through sah we also replace worn carpet, repair rear stairways, perform minor electrical work, and more. We saw an increase in application and helped over 245 residents of san francisco.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
