100 Days of Bahay Kalinga Report
100 Days of Bahay Kalinga marks the first 100 days of building a foundation for care, stability, and belonging. Since opening on July 1, 2026, Bahay Kalinga—“house of care”—has welcomed neighbors who are unhoused or at risk of losing their housing to FCDC’s community resource center in SoMa.
Through meals, laundry, essential supplies, and connections to care, Bahay Kalinga puts malasakit (compassion), kapwa (shared humanity), and bayanihan (community working together) into practice.
The work is still growing. These first 100 days show what becomes possible when a community creates a place where people can find support—and belong.
