At @SPUR_Urbanist's annual awards luncheon where Mayor @LondonBreed and Salesforce CEO Marc @Benioff are giving speeches about the importance of solving the city's homeless problem. Breed, who opposes Prop. C, says it's a regional problem and doubling the money won't help.
.@Benioff, who's giving millions to back Prop. C, says safe streets and cleanliness are essential for successful businesses. "Is this who we really are? That's what I'm asking each one of you."
"This is a crisis of inaction. It is a crisis of indifference." -- @Benioff
"Where on my agenda, corporate or personal, are the homeless, our public schools, our public hospitals?" @Benioff challenges other CEOs to ask themselves this question. "We are one San Francisco!"
Now @Benioff giving a shout out to the @sfchronicle and @jilltucker for the story on a homeless student that prompted him to give money for homeless families. Go Jill!
.@Benioff says "the most fortunate among us" need to provide more money for homelessness. "Every single one of us can do something...Vote yes on Prop. C."
"You all didn't know you were coming to church today!" Says @Meeksmoss of @Benioff. His powerful speech went way long but got several people to stand up and applaud.
Interesting to note that @SPUR_Urbanist backs Prop. C.
