Education for both the children and the parents of the families we serve offers a long-term solution to the challenges of the working poor.

Our after-school program is a positive place for youth to be healthy, interact with others in the community, receive mentorship, and provide leadership.

The St. Francis Center owns and operates 135 units of extremely low, very low, and low-income apartments.

Donors throughout the peninsula stock our closet with barely used clothing for all ages, sheets, towels, blankets, and small household items knowing these donations will be immediately re-homed into the community.

St. Francis Center’s laundry and shower facilities give individuals and families the opportunity to do laundry and shower for free by appointment.

Two community dumps were transformed into community gardens across the street from the Center and are a source of community pride, nurturing both body and spirit.

Area churches, civic organizations and individuals donate 5,000 new toys and wrapping paper annually.

One of the largest take-home food programs on the Peninsula, the St. Francis Center food pantry, in partnership with Second Harvest Food Bank, serves 2500 people every month.
