And as someone who grew up here sadly i saw so many of my friends move from San Francisco ways they couldnt afford to live here and seen people hard work the carpenters and other organizations move away from San Francisco because they Cal State University afford to live and here and making sure that San Francisco is a place for all again increasing a place you make a lot of money and can afford to live here, or youre lucky any enough to see a family what a house youre lucky enough to inherent or qualify more Affordable Housing and what happens to everyone else .

To learn more about the Program Visit i have been living in San Francisco since 1957. I live in this area for 42 years. My name is shirley jackson, and i am a retirement teacher for San Francisco unified school district, and i work with Early Childhood education and after school programs. I have light upstairs and down stairs. Its been remodelled and i like it. Some of my floors upstairs was there from the time i built the place, so they were very horrible and dark. But weve got lighting. The room seems lighter. They painted the place, they cemented my back yard, so i wont be worried about landscaping too much. We have central heating, and i like the new countertops they put in. Up to date oh, and we have venetian blinds. We never had venetian blinds before, and its just cozy for me. It meant a lot to me because i didnt drive, and i wanted to be in the area where i can do my shopping, go to work, take the kids to school. I like the way they introduced the movein. I went to quite a bit of the meetings. They showed us blueprints of the materials that they were going to use in here, and they gave us the opportunity to choose where we would like to stay while they was renovating. It means a lot. Its just that ive been here so long. Most people that enjoyed their life would love to always retain that life and keep that lifestyle, so it was a peaceful neighborhood. The park was always peaceful, and i dont know. I just loved it. I wanted to be here, and i stayed. I am iris long. We are a Family Business that started in San Francisco chinatown by my parents who started the business in the mid 1980s. Today we follow the same footsteps of my parents. We source the teas by the harvest season and style of crafting and the specific variety. We specialize in premium tea. Today i still visit many of the farms we work with multigenerational farms that produce premium teas with its own natural flavors. It is very much like grapes for wine. What we do is more specialized, but it is more natural. Growing up in San Francisco i used to come and help my parents after school whether in middle school or high school and throughout college. I went to San Francisco state university. I did stay home and i helped my parents work throughout the summers to learn what it is that makes our community so special. After graduating i worked for an Investment Bank in hong kong for a few years before returning when my dad said he was retiring. He passed away a few years ago. After taking over the business we made this a little more accessible for visitors as well as residents of San Francisco to visit. Many of our teas were traditionally labeled only in chinese for the older generation. Today of our tea drinkkers are quite young. It is easy to look on the website to view all of our products and fun to come in and look at the different varieties. They are able to explore what we source, premium teas from the providence and the delicious flavors. San francisco is a beautiful city to me as well as many of the residents and businesses here in chinatown. It is great for tourists to visit apsee how our community thrived through the years.
