London Breed Plans to Use Her Historic Mayorship to Fight for Black San Francisco

London Breed is your homegirl’s favorite homegirl.

The San Francisco native was raised by her grandmother in abject poverty. She lived in public housing, and her family of five survived on $900 a month and government-issued groceries. Even with the deck stacked against her, Breed managed to graduate high school with honors and went on to earn degrees from both the University of California at Davis as well as the University of San Francisco. She is one of the ones who “made it out” of the hood and did something to “better herself,” as they always say we should.

Funding Requests


I would like to request for help to be assisted for the sake of my mother's health. She is sick with chronic Asmatic condition which makes her life difficult with prolonged cough. We wish to request for help to relocate her from our rular areas which is very cold and difficult for her to survive. All the triggers of her condition are present in that area. Helping her out to relocate will be the number one help. Thankyou in advance for your kind gesture towards a sick mother.
