In 2023, we achieved remarkable milestones: 77 cleanups, over 130 tons of waste removed, 5,450 bags of debris collected, 50 individuals rehoused, and a 155% surge in mutual aid days, catalyzing transformative change in Oakland. And all of this was done with only $172,757.

The unhoused crisis is a growing concern that affects countless individuals and families, leaving them without a stable roof over their heads and essential resources. It is a complex problem with multifaceted challenges that demand our collective attention. Our organization, Urban Compassion Project, is committed to creating a positive impact and uplifting those in need.
We provide immediate relief and long-term solutions for the unhoused individuals in our area. With your generous contribution we can make a substantial difference in their lives and improve the overall well-being of our community.
