10:00 am: Time to Vote!


Feb 18

The 2020 Presidential Primaries will be held in California on Tuesday, March 3. LightHouse wants to make sure that everyone has the ability to vote and that your voice is heard. This year we are excited to offer volunteers so that you may vote prior to Election Day. If you would like to complete a ballot in advance of the election, you may schedule a time to come in on select days at either LightHouse San Francisco or LightHouse East Bay in Berkeley.
All volunteers receive LightHouse training and will have passed a background check prior to working with you on your ballot. Please note that volunteers cannot provide advice on voting and can only help you complete your ballot. You will then be responsible for dropping off your ballot, either at a designated ballot drop off, your polling place, or by mail.
Voting parties will be held on:

  • Tuesday, 2/18 from 10 am - 2 pm LightHouse San Francisco
  • Monday, 2/24 from 11 am - 3 pm LightHouse San Francisco
  • Tuesday, 2/25 from 12 - 3 pm at LightHouse East Bay

To reserve your 15 minute appointment, please email volunteer@lighthouse-sf.org or call 415.694.7320.
If you would like assistance voting, you must be registered to vote in the state of California and have a vote by mail ballot. You must register to vote by February 18, 2020 and request your ballot to arrive by mail by February 25, 2020. You may find out more about deadlines and the official voter registration guides on the California Secretary of State's Website.

10:00 am: Knitting


Feb 20

Every week, our knitters gather to share their purls of wisdom and get in the loop on each other’s latest project, and usually end up in stitches spinning yarns. Whether you knit for pleasure, distraction or just practical economics, or you’ve never done it before and want to give it a try, there’s always room for another loom. Learn, refine, or teach a skill that makes your gift-giving budget lighter weight or support a student-led altruistic project like knitting chemo caps, beanies for babies, lap blankets or other creative applications.
