Welcoming 2025 with Gratitude and Community Impact - January Blog
Gum Moon’s staff and board members
As we step into 2025, Gum Moon remains committed to uplifting and supporting the most vulnerable members of our community.
Rooted in the heart of San Francisco Chinatown since the 1868, Gum Moon Women’s Residence has long served as a beacon of hope for Asian women and families facing barriers to equitable access to essential services. Together through the Asian Family Support Center, in the Richmond and the Sunset, we provide critical programs that address educational, social, health, emotional, and financial disparities.
None of this would be possible without the generosity of our donors and supporters. Your contributions, whether through donations, campaigns, or volunteer efforts, enable us to continue creating safe spaces where women can heal, thrive, and build brighter futures. This year, we look forward to sharing the many impactful events and initiatives that help strengthen our community.
From all of us at Gum Moon, we are over the moon with gratitude—thank you for being part of our mission!
