Our students have been busy growing—inside and out! 🌱🧠 From exploring emotions with an “Emotional Volcano” SEL activity to getting their hands dirty at our Home Away Fork Farm—checking nutrients, pH levels, and transplanting romaine and sage—we’re all about learning through experience. 💚

Spring break adventures with Home Away students! 🤩🐐🌿 From hands-on fun at Slide Ranch and beach days full of sand and games, we made unforgettable memories. 🏖️🦢 A visit to the Oakland Museum brought us closer to California’s wildlife and history. Absolutely none of this would be possible without our amazing donors and community. Our students get to make these memories thanks to you. We are so grateful for these amazing moments together! 🌸

Shoutout to one of our talented high school seniors who brought her film assignment to HomeAway! 🎬✨ She and her classmates asked to film a scene featuring Denelle, one of our amazing staff members, guiding a small group of students through mindful breathing techniques. It is so special when our students feel comfortable enough to bring their school projects to our program. And we are so proud to support these creative projects! 💫

What a beautiful day to go outside and play! 🌞 Our Beach House is a magical place where kids from surrounding homeless shelters and schools can explore, connect with nature, and simply be kids. Every visit is a chance for joy, peace, adventure, and growth. Play is essential to a healthy childhood, and we’re so grateful to offer this experience to children in San Francisco and Marin. 🏖️💙
