Old Skool Cafe is a violence prevention program in San Francisco that provides job training, employment, and a second chance at life by way of a 1920's speakeasy and jazz restaurant run by formerly incarcerated and foster care youth ages sixteen to twenty-two. The management team will use the funding for strategic planning sessions for the upcoming year.
Peerspace is on a mission to bring people together. We believe it is impossible to achieve that goal unless we also fight for equality and access to resources in the communities we serve.
Having a space to gather, create, and exchange ideas is an important part of any movement. In order to magnify voices that are often quieted, Peerspace will sponsor venues for people who challenge prejudice and fight for social justice and equality.
Each quarter, we will sponsor space for three projects that are relevant to our community. These projects can range from fundraisers and educational initiatives to art exhibits and photo series.
