We’ve partnered with SoapyMania to help our youth bring our signature 8 West line of soaps to the next level. 8 West is our pioneering social enterprise, which trains and employs homeless youth to make handcrafted luxury soap.
All proceeds help fund our programs and raise awareness about homelessness in our community while helping homeless youth develop essential job and life skills. Treat yourself to premium 8 West soaps today!
With support from the Rolf Benirschke Legacy Foundation, The Lucky Duck Foundation, and in partnership with UPAC, we are pleased to announce a brand new pizzeria and print shop called “Timmy’s Place”, which trains and employs our homeless youth here at Urban Street Angels. This will enable us to employ over 50 youth a year and give them the skills needed to succeed.
Timmy’s Place is open to the public and serves pizzas, sandwiches, pastries, coffees, and more, and also provides catering. The print shop has a high-capacity automated screen printing machine that can produce thousands of units as well as equipment to handle customizable products. Additionally, merchandise featuring designs, logos, and creations made by homeless youth will be displayed and sold.
We are asking for your help to “fund a shift” for homeless youth. A donation of $100 will cover one four-hour shift for youth at Timmy’s Place.
Check us out at 1404 Fifth Ave, San Diego, CA 92101.
Our efforts to end youth homelessness are making waves. Check out Urban Street Angels in the news and around town. We are always looking for new ways to spread our message of hope, progress, and sustainable change for transition-age homeless youth.
