Join GLIDE for the Holidays

When you donate or volunteer at GLIDE, you ensure every person has someplace to go for the holidays. GLIDE is the city’s family dining room, and we’ve got a love agenda for everyone who needs the love. This year, the love agenda includes 2,500 plates of turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes, veggies, and pumpkin pie.

Like every family dining room, we serve unconditional love and practical support alongside the delicious food. We build relationships with people who eat here and help connect them with needed services to change their lives. This year we’ve all seen how loud the voice of hatred can be. Let’s bridge divisions and overcome the voice of hatred with love!

Interested in workplace volunteer opportunities and corporate giving this holiday season? Sign up here for volunteering or contact Lindsey Coonan at lcoonan@glide.org if you want to arrange for your whole workplace to volunteer. If you have questions, check out our volunteer FAQs, email volteam@glide.org or call 415-674-6081
