Lead Editorial: Tax Cut Hurts Communities
Nonprofits are beacons of hope for thousands of San Franciscans. Right here in Chinatown, numerous organizations are serving the most vulnerable populations with innovative programs. Just down the street from us, for example, YMCA’s Jessica Mah coordinates a mentorship program, pairing inner city youth with leaders of the Asian American community. Three blocks to the north, Diane Chin of Chinese for Affirmative Action, is working to empower the disenfranchised through increased political and civic participation. And on Bush Street, On Lok is helping hundreds of mostly limited-English-speaking seniors with low-cost home health care.
It takes a village for programs like these to run. Workers, volunteers, donations. And funding.
