Friends In Deed

Say hello to Mercedes Soto, ICMS Housing Specialist, the newest member of the Street Outreach and Housing team.🎉💚

Mercedes brings 12 years of social services experience and a deep passion for helping people feel seen, heard, and supported through life's hardest moments. She's also a foodie, a traveler, a true-crime enthusiast, and a mom to a 130-pound Cane Corso puppy who apparently stops traffic wherever he goes. 🐾😄

We are so glad she's part of the Friends In Deed family.

Drop a 👋 in the comments to welcome Mercedes to the team!

Today, we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their sacrifice is a reminder of the cost of freedom and the importance of caring for one another as a community.

In observance of Memorial Day, Friends In Deed offices will be closed. We will resume regular hours on Tuesday.

Wishing you a safe and meaningful day of remembrance.

What a morning to remember. ✨🙏

The 53rd Annual Pasadena Mayor's Interfaith Prayer Breakfast brought our community together in the most beautiful way, and we are still feeling the warmth.

A heartfelt thank you to our keynote speaker, Miguel A. Santana (California Community Foundation), for your powerful words and the spirit you brought to the room. Thank you to the City of Pasadena and Mayor Victor Gordo for your continued partnership and commitment to this cherished tradition. Thank you to Fiona, a guest of The Women’s Room, for sharing her story; she is so brave and so strong.

And a special thank you to everyone who joined us for a morning of reflection and celebration.
