Larkin Street Youth Services Featured in Nob Hill Gazette: Gala Raises Over $1 Million to Support Ending Youth Homelessness
We’re thrilled to share that Larkin Street Youth Services was recently featured in the Nob Hill Gazette for our annual Paving the Way Gala, a powerful evening that raised over $1 million to support young people experiencing homelessness in San Francisco.
Shining a Spotlight on Youth Homelessness in San Francisco
Thank you to the Nob Hill Gazette for covering the event and helping spotlight both the celebration and the broader mission: ending youth homelessness in San Francisco. Media coverage like this helps amplify the voices of young people and the community efforts working to support them.
A Glamorous Evening with a Purpose
The gala took place on May 8 and brought together over 400 guests for a fun Roaring ’20s–themed evening under the Conservatory’s beautiful glass dome. Everyone enjoyed drinks, raffle prizes, and a three-course dinner—all while coming together to support the important work Larkin Street does for youth.
Supporting San Francisco’s Youth Through Housing, Education, and Jobs
Funds raised during the evening will directly support Larkin Street’s core services—housing, education, employment, and health care—that help young people move beyond homelessness and toward brighter futures.
Words from City Leadership
We’re honored the article included remarks from San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie, who praised Larkin Street’s impact:
“We need more great organizations like Larkin Street. You all are supporting an amazing institution that has taken care of our city for a long time, and I look forward to partnering with you for years to come.”
Our CEO, Sherilyn Adams, echoed this spirit of collaboration in her remarks:
“It takes all of us to work together to address the challenges our city is facing, and we can do that.”
Together, We’re Paving the Way
At Larkin Street, we believe lasting change happens when community members, city leaders, and young people work together. This feature in the Nob Hill Gazette is more than just a highlight—it’s a reflection of the collective commitment to building a fearless path to brighter tomorrows.
