Thank you to everyone that STEPPED UP to help end homelessness in San Diego on Oct. 27!

HomeAid San Diego’s inaugural event was a great success due to the generous support of our sponsors and registered walkers.  Our walk brought together over 300 people, 12 homeless service providers and over 7 commercial real estate companies to walk and figure out new ways to bring more permanent housing solutions to San Diego.  

In partnership with commercial real estate and NAIOP, exceeded its fundraising goal of $50,000 and has several projects underway and on the horizon to reduce the number of unsheltered homeless in San Diego county.

If you have further questions about this event or how to volunteer, please contact us at info@homeaidsd.org.
