San Francisco
Sonnenschein - San Francisco office has partnered with the San Francisco Community School, a small and innovative teacher-run kindergarten through eighth grade school in the Excelsior district, whose students represent the ethnic and socioeconomic diversity of San Francisco. Lawyers and staff throughout the office have been volunteering at weekly after-school tutoring sessions, assisting with monthly “Home-Cooked” breakfast and lunch meals, attending school open house and garden cleanup events, and donating funds to the school through in-office fundraising projects. Planned future activities include providing assistance with the development and implementation of a sustainable technology plan for San Francisco Community School, working with the school and other organizations to develop a long-term breakfast and lunch program and developing a student sponsorship program for Project OLE activities.
