Members Of The Tenderloin Tech Lab Celebrate Independence Day

By JEVA Summer Interns, Damien and Theresa

“As a kid I’ve always liked history, I can’t always say that the U.S. is right or wrong, but everything that has happened has taught us a lot about ourselves and others.” Willie shared what the 4th of July meant to him as he held a slice of the cake he brought in to share and celebrate the 4th of July. Members and staff of the Tenderloin Tech Lab enjoyed the two cakes and snacks provided by Willie and Danny,two long term Tenderloin Tech Lab members who share their appreciation for the Tenderloin Tech Lab‘s services on major holidays. “A lot of people who come to the Tenderloin Tech Lab are driven to get back on their feet through employment, and its inspiring to me and Danny. We can give everyone at least one bright moment.”

It was indeed a bright moment for everyone who attended the Tenderloin Tech Lab that day. Willie was recommended to the Tenderloin Tech Lab when it opened at 150 Golden Gate Ave, ” When I first walked in the door, I told myself you belong here.” Willie really likes the family feel that the Tenderloin Tech Lab embodies, and can attest to the fact that the Tenderloin Tech Lab is the best Lab in the area.
