Your tax-deductible gift supports our
mission of providing health care and
other services to sex workers in need.
Help us help them by mailing your check
or money order to:
St. James Infirmary, Attn: Development,
1372 Mission Street, San Francisco,
CA 94103.
If you prefer, you can donate online through
Paypal!
In support of its mission,
the St. James Infirmary actively seeks
charitable gifts. Such gifts are necessary
for the agency to continue. All gifts
are accepted with the understanding
that donors will not have undue or inappropriate
influence on the mission, operating
policies or procedures of the St. James
Infirmary. As a public charity focused
on providing health care to sex workers,
the policy of the St. James Infirmary
is to remain community-centered and
collaborative in building a political
advocacy and activism agenda. Building
common cause across the sex industry
that is grounded in a peer-driven process
is a complicated endeavor that takes
difficult work. We are committed to
developing a means of actualizing solidarity
in this struggle.
"Never underestimate
the power of small incremental change
over a long period of time."
We are fortunate in that the sex worker
community is full of generous and talented
entertainers. Do you like to organize
events and want to help a worthy cause?
If you would like to host an event and
make the St. James Infirmary a beneficiary,
please contact our Development
Coordinator. We'll do what we can
to help.
