Coalition on Homelessness Art Auction 10

Description

ArtAuction10: Transforming Art into Auction, Standing up for Human Rights. A live and silent auction to benefit the work of the Coalition on Homelessness, San francisco.

The Coalition on Homelessness was formed in 1987 to foster the active participation of homeless and low-income San Francisco residents and front-line staff in the struggle for economic and social justice. Through an integrated approach that combines outreach, peer support, leadership development, public education, advocacy, and community organizing, the COH works to defend homeless and low-income people from attacks on their rights and their persons, while advocating for permanent solutions to homelessness that take into account not only poverty’s devastating effects, but also its root causes
