The Power of Partnerships
The engine holds all the power necessary to help a vehicle run. Without it, a vehicle would go nowhere. Similarly, Mobilize Love would not be able to go very far without our partners. That is why we have formalized our partnership program called: ENGINE.
Three Types of Partners:
Community Partners
Church Partners
Corporate Partners
Community Partners
One vital element of our Engine (the way we run), is our community partners. In many of the neighborhoods we are serving, we learned that there are often groups that offer subsidiary and complimentary services to some of the same people we are serving. That is why, we spend time integrating our efforts with our community partners to ensure that neighborhoods are truly getting the best care possible
Community Partner Spotlight:
Us4Us - Damien Posey
Us4Us is just one of many of our community partners. They are a youth organization that helps uplift people through community action with violence prevention based on knowledge of self-resources and mentorship.
Church Partners
Another vital element of our Engine, is our church partners. These are churches in San Francisco that we’ve carefully vetted to become our consistent source of volunteerism and community support for the families that we serve. Sometimes, children, youth, and families, may desire a deeper connection to a faith community, we are able to bring the two together as a neutral convener.
Corporate Partners
The last element of our Engine is our corporate partners. These are corporations who partner with us to serve. Companies help provide funding and volunteers. In exchange, companies can outsource employee volunteer opportunities to boost company morale, public persona, and community investment.
