Margaret Cho #BeRobin campaign
During November and December 2014 Mia worked with Margaret Cho in her #BeRobin campaign, organizing and playing a series of events on the streets and in the clubs of San Francisco, raising money and awareness on behalf of the homeless population of San Francisco. Food, supplies, clothing, haircuts AND money were passed out to the homeless, and a great time was had by all!
It’s an ongoing project and over $23,000 has been raised so far. The money has been distributed both directly to homeless people and to a few great homeless charities in San Francisco such as:
Larkin Street Youth Services:
larkinstreetyouth.org
Lava Mae:
lavamae.org
At The Crossroads:
