The Bay Area Gives Back – GLIDE – San Francisco

Welcome to the page of Iglesia Cristiana Getsemani, a faith-based community and society organization dedicated to making a positive impact in the Bay Area. In collaboration with GLIDE, a renowned nonprofit organization based in San Francisco, we strive to give back to our community and provide support to those in need. This page explores our collective efforts and highlights the initiatives we undertake to create a better world.

Empowering the Community

At Iglesia Cristiana Getsemani, we firmly believe that a strong community is built when its members come together to support one another. Through various programs, events, and partnerships, we actively work towards empowering individuals and fostering a sense of unity in the Bay Area.

Our Partnership with GLIDE

GLIDE has been at the forefront of serving marginalized communities in San Francisco for over half a century. Their mission to unleash the potential of the community aligns perfectly with our beliefs. Together, Iglesia Cristiana Getsemani and GLIDE join hands to address social injustices, provide essential resources, and uplift the lives of those facing adversity.

Programs and Initiatives

Our commitment to giving back is reflected in the numerous programs and initiatives we undertake. These include:

• 1. Food Drives: We organize regular food drives to ensure that no one goes hungry in our community. Through our partnership with local food banks, we distribute nutritious meals to individuals and families in need.
• 2. Homeless Outreach: We work closely with GLIDE's comprehensive homeless services to provide assistance, resources, and support to individuals experiencing homelessness. Our volunteers engage in street outreach, offering compassion and a helping hand.
• 3. Educational Programs: Education is key to building a better future. We offer educational programs that focus on literacy, career development, and skill building. By empowering individuals through knowledge and education, we strive to break the cycle of poverty.
• 4. Community Events: We host regular community events that promote inclusivity, cultural exchange, and unity. These events provide a platform for people from diverse backgrounds to come together, celebrate diversity, and foster stronger bonds within our community.
