Doing God's Work. Happy Birthday Signe. Love You

This holiday season, we’re raising funds to create joyful, dignity-centered stockings for our unhoused neighbors—each one filled with a Taco Bell gift card for a hot meal, $10 in cash for whatever they most need in the moment, and a small transistor radio so they can listen to music -- which is lifeline-level important out here, and most folks have no reliable way to access it. Of course, we will also add some goodies. These stockings are care, warmth, connection, and most of all resilience. They also remind people we care, and these relationships are the “secret sauce” that helps chronically unhoused neighbors allow us to help folks take steps toward stability and eventually housing. Help us deliver a joy and justice, and a whole lot of love this season.

Houseless Holiday Stockings

Organized volunteers providing outreach to unhoused folks with urgent relief: warmth, food, humanity, and  connection to services.

Town Bizness exists to bring the necessities of a dignified human life to the unhoused population of Oakland and Berkeley, CA. 
These necessities include good food, reliable shelter, clothing, toiletries, bedding, and basic creature comforts such as safe propane stoves and heaters, radios, and more, depending on each client’s needs. 

We also assist with housing, and keeping folks connected to service providers by supplying telephones and monthly service. 

The majority of folks we serve were born where they now live in tents, and once had property ownership in their families here in the bay area, but no longer do. Most are seniors, and many of them are now sick and/or disabled.
