Our programs

Four ways we show up for San Diego.

Food donations come first. Each program shows what it is, who it helps, how you can help and where it stands today.

Honest by design

We are just getting started.

San Diego Helpers Foundation was incorporated in California in October 2026. We will only post results once they are real, and we will share them openly.

Become a Helper.

Monthly donations let us plan ahead. One-time donations help too. Every dollar goes to our mission and necessary admin costs, with a receipt for every expense.
