Volunteers from Mithun are partnering with Sawhorse Revolution to guide students in the design and documentation of a tiny house for a family experiencing homelessness. The team is meeting with eleven Franklin High School students over an eight-week period, teaching design concepts, studying precedent imagery, and hosting collaborative design charrettes and crits. This environment invites students into a memorable project, where ideas are realized, problem-solving skills are sharpened, and chances are taken to do something extraordinary for those around us. Next semester, Sawhorse Revolution will facilitate the construction of this house, built by the same students in collaboration with a professional builder in Seattle. #DesignforPositiveChange

Our team recently volunteered for Harvest Day at the Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Corporation's (TNDC) Tenderloin People’s Garden. Did you know that San Francisco’s Tenderloin District is one of the only neighborhoods in the city without a full-service grocery store, making access to fresh, affordable food a daily struggle for the many low-income residents? This incredible gardening program began in 2010 on a vacant lot near San Francisco City Hall, and has expanded to include four rooftop gardens and produce about 2,500 pounds of food annually. Opening in 2018, our affordable housing project with TNDC at 1036 Mission will add a new rooftop garden to the mix. For more info about TNDC’s gardens and to volunteer: http://www.tndc.org/programs/tl-peoples-garden/
