Support art. Support dignity. Support housing as a human right.

This year, we’re honoring the 36th anniversary of the founding of our street newspaper, Street Sheet, the longest continuously running street publication in the nation!

All proceeds from ArtAuction25 support the continued publication of Street Sheet and proceeds will fund our Human Rights and Housing Justice Organizing programs so we can continue advocating with and for the unhoused, ensuring that humane, empathetic, solution-based policies to end homelessness are prioritized over political theatrics that do nothing but waste money and harms unhoused San Franciscans. 

About the Foundation

Founded in 1987 by unhoused leaders and shelter staff, the Coalition on Homelessness organizes homeless people and front-line service providers to create permanent solutions to homelessness while working to protect the human rights of those forced to remain on the streets. Our work has been instrumental in pushing San Francisco towards a more humane and more effective approach to the growing homelessness crisis.
