A representative of management authorizes the final form 990 which is then e-filed with the internal revenue service.”

“Community Engagement Continued: With the increase in home deliveries, Openhouse recruited 300 new volunteers since the COVID-19 outbreak through its partnership with Mon Ami, a San Francisco software/elder companionship organization. We could not do our work without the support of this devoted army of volunteers who make friendly telephone calls and deliver groceries, other essential items, and gifts. We also explored other ways to create safe opportunities to decrease social isolation. We celebrated Transgender Pride with hot brunch delivery to 41 trans seniors. We also made front page news with our drag show for residents who watched from their apartment windows. We literally stopped traffic on Laguna Street as people slowed and pulled over to watch the balcony performers.”
