Feeding People, Feeding The Economy

Most people associate St. Anthony’s with food. But our programs also help put people to work.

The Tenderloin Technology Lab, conducted with San Francisco Network Ministries, offers computer classes at every level from introductory to computer technician. The Tech Lab helps use technology to find a job.

St. Anthony’s Clothing Program collects, inspects, and prepares used clothing for families sending their children to school and unemployed guests looking for a job.

Our Free Medical Clinic’s pediatrics program helps parents stay at work by helping them keep their children healthy.

Residents of our drug and alcohol rehabilitation program get their first work experience in St. Anthony Dining Room and get job coaching to learn not only how to find a job, but also how to hold one.

And as people who have lost their jobs come to the end of their 99 weeks of unemployment benefits, St. Anthony Dining Room is helping to take pressure off their budgets by providing hot, nutritious meals.

St. Anthony’s is more than a charity. Today’s guests are tomorrow’s work force.
