LifeMoves is committed to ending homelessness through innovative solutions. With 26 shelter and service sites in San Mateo and Santa Clara counties, they serve over 1,328 clients every night, and return over 2,000 clients per year to stable housing. NCC volunteer teams serve meals and develop relationships at the Navigation Center in Redwood City, Haven Family House in Menlo Park (photo above), and the Opportunity Services Center in Palo Alto.

Puente de la Costa Sur fosters wellness and prosperity in the San Mateo County South Coast farmworker communities of Pescadero, La Honda, Loma Mar, and San Gregorio by promoting and advocating for equitable access to education, health, and economic security.

Our NCC Accompaniment Team recently completed training and is now accompanying two sisters from Guatemala, newly arrived immigrants currently residing in San Mateo. These funds will help meet their basic needs as we focus on connecting them with local resources, assisting them in achieving their goals, fostering their journey toward self-sufficiency, and building a meaningful friendship. Team members: Katharine Sherwin, Annette Shelby, Michelle Santilhano, Maria Lozano, Maria Lim, and Bennie Ingraham.
