20 YEARS OF CELEBRATION, EDUCATION, INSPIRATION

Since 2004, Building Peaceful Families has offered programs that recognize the best in those who may not always see the best in themselves. With the passing of BPF Founder Judge Sharon Chatman in 2020, and the disruption of our programs due to Covid, the BPF Board of Directors has made the difficult decision to cease operations at the end of 2024.

But rather than focusing on any sadness we may feel, we want to celebrate 20 years of making a difference! On August 10th, we will host the final Judge Sharon Chatman Memorial Red Rocks Challenge. Mark you calendars now and watch FB for details.

We made a total of 400 hygiene kits. We cannot say enough about the Pacifica Institute in Santa Clara and all the work they did with the Los Altos United Methodist Church and their compassion week. The Institute had opened the boxes laid them out on the tables and set everything up for the volunteers. 400 kids were done in about an hour and a half and they had scheduled 4 hours and two shifts. It was a great experience.

Recognizing the quiet strength in our communities

Building Peaceful Families' mission is to celebrate, educate, and inspire individuals through programs that help them become more involved, responsible, and committed family and community members.

Background & Philosophy

Founded in 2004 by Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Sharon Chatman, BPF exists almost exclusively on in-kind donations. With an extensive network of dedicated volunteers and an experienced working board of directors, we target the underserved and often overlooked populations in our community – grandmothers who have given up retirement to raise their grandchildren; fathers and father figures (including probationers, teen fathers, single and divorced fathers) who desperately want and need resources so they can be responsible, involved, committed parents; men, women, and children of all ages, shapes, and sizes who strive to improve their fitness, but cannot afford personal trainers or expensive gym memberships.

We believe in treating all people with dignity and respect. We encourage and support each individual who participates in our programs and events, and we welcome and embrace people of every age, race, religion, size, shape, fitness level, sexual orientation, political affiliation, and financial status. We embrace and celebrate the diversity that is our Bay Area family.
