Mission Holiday Block Party

With the beginning of Hanukkah and Christmas in less than two weeks, it’s good to see a neighborhood street fest that’s taken a creative approach to giving back to the community and shoppers alike. Today’s Mission Holiday Block Party in San Francisco will benefit Tipping Point Community, a non-profit that supports economic self-sufficiency for Bay Area residents. Visitors to oddities vendors Payton Gate and the Curiosity Shoppe will get 15% off for bringing in their unemployment stubs. If that fails, women’s clothier Sunhee Moon is offering reusable shopping bags and free cocktails shall abound.
