About San Francisco Service Day
Presented by the Leadership San Francisco Class of 2025, this one-of-a-kind event celebrates civic engagement and community service across San Francisco. On July 12, 2025, volunteers from all corners of the City will come together to demonstrate their civic pride by giving back through hands-on service with a wide range of local nonprofit organizations. The day concludes with a vibrant evening celebration on the iconic Maiden Lane in Union Square—an opportunity to connect with fellow volunteers, nonprofit partners, and City leaders in recognition of the collective impact we’ve made together.
