After a morning of sorting toiletries at the Gubbio, neighbors Twitter and the Coalition on Homelessness sat together and  joined in a discussion concerning homelessness, from personal experience to the need for policy change .

A wonderful "Tweet" from a Twitter employee who attended #Fridayforgood at The Gubbio Project. Yes, Kelley was inspiring! Gret bought a "Home" sign after the discussion.

Better Homes & Gardens Today is a public art project  by Megan Wilson and Christopher Statton  developed to: 1) Heighten awareness around “home” and the realities of homelessness; 2) Cultivate a dialog within communities and amongst disparate groups about what is needed - funding and policy change - to end homelessness; and 3) To raise money to benefit the Gubbio Project, the Coalition On Homelessness, and At The Crossroads,  organizations working to address homelessness in San Francisco.  

All people, especially those who are living on the streets or have mental health or substance abuse issues, are worthy of respect, dignity, and loving kindness.
