San Franciscans of long standing very deeply respect Project Open Hand. Those of us who were here during the last two decades of the twentieth century and witnessed the devastation of our community caused by AIDS know how valuable Ruth Brinker's Project Open Hand is to the people of San Francisco. Project Open Hand keeps a lot of very sick people alive. We need to do everything we can to support POH.
Here are your next three opportunities:
