The PHC Community Day of Service is a one-stop shop service event where individuals experiencing homelessness can access over 100 critical resources such as medical, dental, and vision care, and free groceries. By mobilizing city and community agencies, as well as thousands of volunteers, we are able to ensure that our participants receive holistic care in a dignified setting.

Volunteer Tips:
What to wear: Most volunteer positions involve standing and/or walking, so be sure to dress comfortably. All new volunteers will be given a volunteer t-shirt when you check in at Volunteer Central.
What to bring: Please bring a smile, a water bottle, and an open mind. As our volunteer needs change through the day you might be reassigned. PHC provides a meal for all volunteers at the end of your shift! Donations for shirts and meals are greatly appreciated.
What NOT to bring: Please leave all valuables at home. We DO NOT have a coat check or secure place for you to leave items. If you have a fanny-pack, now might be the perfect time to break it out!
Volunteer Check-In: The volunteer entrance is located on Grove Street between Polk & Larkin (99 Grove) and will be clearly marked; please then follow signs and staff direction to the Volunteer Check In area. The volunteer entrance opens at 7:00 AM.
Transportation and Parking: The Muni underground, BART, and many above ground Muni busses/trains come within a few blocks of the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium. We DO NOT have parking reserved for volunteers or providers. We highly recommend taking public transit if possible. Street parking is very limited. The closest parking garage is under Civic Center Plaza. The entrance is on McAllister between Polk & Larkin.
