During the pandemic, San Francisco experienced an exodus of people leaving the City. We have weathered the storm and are committed to staying and serving. As we turn ten years old as a church, we have been given the opportunity to root ourselves in San Francisco and position ourselves to serve and love San Francisco in ways we've never been able to do before. Canvas finally has a long-term home. When we launched Canvas in 2013, our vision was bigger than Sunday. We did not start Canvas to only offer church services but to be a church of service to San Francisco. And now you can help turn that vision into a reality.
Every Sunday, we will open our doors to all people to experience a loving God in loving community. It will be a space of prayer, worship, healing, and grace where people will discover the Good News of God's love and how to practice the way of Jesus in San Francisco.
A space for impactful collaboration.
A venue for local and global non-profits to share their work and for you to get in on the impact. We will use this building as a way to elevate the voices of people and organizations that are doing impactful work in the world.
A space for creativity.
From a co-working space during the week to workshops led by Bay Area leaders and thinkers. This isn't just a building; it will be an epicenter of creativity and innovation.
A space for the next generation
A safe and fun space for children and families to play and grow together as they root themselves in the City. From after school programs to family workshops, we're committing to invest in the next generation of San Franciscans.
A space to partner with San Francisco leadership
A space that can be used to partner with San Francisco and it's local leadership in a variety of ways in order to build a stronger, safer, and more beautiful future for the city that we all love.
A for-purpose coffee shop.
What if you could make an impact in San Francisco for only the price of a cup of coffee? Now you will be able to as we open up a non-profit coffee shop right in the heart of the Presidio. Every cup of caffeination will be used for transformation in San Francisco.
This would be pretty amazing, right?
Here's what it will take...
