Samaritan House

The Millbrae Anti-Racist Coalition, with the help of the City of Millbrae, will have a two part community project called Millbrae Lights of Hope.

1.  Raise much needed funds for the most vulnerable members of the Millbrae community who have been affected by the pandemic because of job loss, illness, or both.  The funds will be directed to the Samaritan House San Mateo , specifically for Millbrae residents who register for services.  

2.  Community members who donate at least $10.00 will get 5 luminarias in their name (or someone else's honor).  You can decorate the luminarias with positive messages of HOPE and PEACE for a better community, nation, and world.  

There will be a special luminary display on Saturday, December 5 at the Millbrae City Hall Plaza.

Thank you all for your hard work during these uncertain times! We would like to ask even more of you: if you able, please consider participating in our fundraiser for Samaritan House (San Mateo, East Palo Alto, Menlo Park).  All proceeds will go to support meals, utilities, and rent for underserved families in San Mateo County. This is a hard time financially for many of us, and we understand and respect if you are unable to donate. However, if you are in a position to donate, we encourage you to join the #RedirectTheCheck movement by donating your federal stimulus check to families who need it most. Inviting families and friends to participate is also encouraged. Thank you again for all that you do!
