CHAM Mercy Mobile

THE HEARTBEAT OF THE STREETS

Since it hit the streets on Thanksgiving Day, the Mercy Mobile has become an effective tool in fighting homelessness and hunger in Silicon Valley.

Through the efforts of hundreds of volunteers, many of them students and members of various church youth groups, the Mercy Mobile has:

Delivered more than 4,000 blankets to those on the streets
Fed hundreds of hot meals to the hungry at St. James Park each week
Brought several churches and organizations together, to worship, serve and organize on the streets
Delivered hundreds of necessities to people on the streets who would otherwise not get them
Discovered dozens of new encampments and documented their locations
Assisted in relocating the displaced after encampment sweeps
Brought national news attention to the plight of the homeless in Silicon Valley
Helped expose the tremendous economic disparities that exist in Silicon Valley
