At noon on Saturday April 25th, Tony Bennett joins Charlotte Mailliard Shultz to invite San Franciscans and people around the world to a live sing-a-long of “I Left My Heart in San Francisco” . This event is dedicated to frontline workers in the fight against COVID-19. . San Franciscans and others around the world are invited to raise their voices simultaneously in song by singing I Left My Heart in San Francisco, Tony Bennett’s classic ballad to “The City that Knows How.” The brainchild of San Francisco Chief of Protocol Charlotte Mailliard Shultz, people are encouraged to take to their balconies, laptops, smartphones and backyards to send a message of love and strength to everyone’s favorite city and in tribute to all of the frontline workers in the fight against COVID-19. Participants are encouraged to live-stream and record their performances via their online social media assets of choice (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube) with the hashtag #singoutsf . “Our City has come together in an unprecedented way to confront this public health crisis, and I know our residents will continue to do everything they can to keep our communities safe and get us through this challenging time,” said San Francisco Mayor London Breed. “By taking a moment to join together in song to celebrate our frontline health workers and everyone working to make a difference during this pandemic, we can recognize how connected we are to one another, not just here in San Francisco, but all over the world.” . “San Francisco has been in my heart for over 50 years,” said Tony Bennett. “I am so proud and impressed with how the City by the Bay has continued to ‘bend the curve’ during the COVID-19 crisis and serve as an inspiration to the world of how together and alone we can make a difference.” .

North Beach is open for business! . As everyone knows, this is an extremely difficult time for small businesses everywhere in San Francisco, including in our own North Beach neighborhood. We ask everyone living in and around North Beach to support our local businesses that are open, even with limited hours and services, by patronage when ever possible but particularly during this current COVID-19 crisis. . Many North Beach businesses which are not deemed “essential” have also set up GoFundMe fundraisers to support their loyal staff and meet basic business expenses in order to survive this quarantine period. . We’ve compiled a list of businesses (by category) that are open as normal, or are operating with sepcial hours, contactless delivery, pick up or take out services, as well as those who are humbly requesting your generous monetary support! . For the health and safety of the staff providing these services, and our community at large, please practice safe habits, including hand washing and sanitizing, wearing a mask and or gloves, and most importantly, maintaining social distancing when entering for services of any kind. Let’s protect and support each other during this time. Together we will get through this! . Stay safe and well!

Caffe Trieste is a North Beach institution in every sense. Your morning coffee has been nothing less than a contribution to this vital part of our historic neighborhood. . Your amazing generosity is helping keep our local North Beach businesses alive through this crisis! Thank you to everyone who has been able to come to the aid of our friends and neighbors! . Caffe Trieste has organized a GoFundMe to help their cafe family survive this pandemic! . Hello, family and friends of the Caffè Trieste, . The Caffè Trieste has been North Beach’s living room for the past 64 years—in fact, April 1st, 2020 is our 64th anniversary. Our staff has always been small and intimate, like a family—the same model our business was built upon—and you’ve also become part of our family. We want to thank you now for your continued loyalty. March 24th marks the 7th day that we have been closed due to the uncertainty of this global pandemic. At this point, we all know how meaningful it is to keep our community strong, and how to do that is a serious question. We are reaching out to you, our family and friends—now more than ever—to help our baristas and staff stay afloat during these hard times. Any amount you can donate will be highly appreciated and will, as always, go directly to the small team that has served you “Nel 1956” and wants to keep on doing so. We really are family. So thank you! We are extremely grateful for all the love & support. You are the essence of the Caffè Trieste. We miss everyone & look forward to seeing you soon. . @caffetriesteofficial .

From Elly Simmons: . To friends, family and patrons of Specs Bar, . We are in unprecedented times and Specs' Twelve Adler Museum Cafe was forced to shutter our doors for the first time in history due to the coronavirus.

We just simply can't do that without all of you! . We are reaching out to you, those who love Specs the man and Specs the bar, to enable us to have funds to not go belly up because of this shutdown. Please consider donating anything you're able to, everything helps. The funds will go directly towards paying our rent, essential bills, and our employees as well as helping us resurface when we are allowed to reopen. . We are extremely grateful for your help in this challenging time and we hope that you are all staying safe and healthy. .
