Gum Moon AWRC hosted a 4-part AI workshop series for 25 community members, introducing tools like ChatGPT, Doubao, and CapCut. In a city shaped by tech, we believe vulnerable and marginalized communities deserve access, understanding, and opportunity too.

🧧✨ We shared Chinese New Year with our community by giving away 120 grocery bags. ❤️ For marginalized families, a grocery bag can mean relief, dignity, and care. Huge thanks to Rotary Club volunteers and to Susan Chan (on behalf of Asm. Matt Haney) for joining us.

💛 AFSC Richmond kids joined SFPD’s “Heroes & Helpers” event—each child shopped with an officer at Target to pick a gift for themselves or someone they love, learning sharing + gratitude along the way. Parents said it brought a warm, joy-filled Holiday. 🎁✨

Happy 2026! 🏮We’re stepping into the new year with so much gratitude for the joy and connection you create together. Not long ago, our Friendship Group brought Chinatown parents together in the most meaningful way: by making traditional savory TangYuan side by side. 🥣💛

In loving memory of our dear Doreen 💛 She brought so much fun to Gum Moon, with her goofy jokes, quirky sense of humor, and her sweet, good-hearted spirit. She was the perfect “Money God” for our 2024 Lunar New Year Celebration. She will be deeply missed by all of us.

Last week at Gum Moon, we were able to gift 110 goodie bags to our SF families who are pregnant or have at least one child, helping support families with young children during a time when the cost of living and instability weigh heavily on families. Thanks SF DEC for supporting.

Chinatown came alive for Halloween: costumes, treats, pumpkin patches! For our underserved community, days like this build support and sensory exploration so kids grow confident and well-adjusted. Thanks to every neighbor, volunteer, and SF DEC! 🎃🏮
