Harbor House in Oakland Serving Our Community

https://hhministries.org/

Harbor House is a nonprofit, Christian community development organization in Oakland that primarily serves immigrants, refugees, and low-income families of color through education, leadership development, spiritual formation, and food & clothing access. Our mission is to provide a safe space for families to share opportunities, resources, and relationships, enabling all families to flourish.  

Danny Fitelson serves as the Director of Community Partnerships at Harbor House. In that capacity, he directs our Tutor the Tigers program at Franklin Elementary School and connects with schools, churches, and community-based organizations to identify volunteer tutors for our youth. Before coming to Harbor House, Danny served as a pastor for 20 years. He loves to work with teens and young adults to put on programs that help kids feel valued. In his spare time, he enjoys hanging out with his wife and two daughters, watch movies that have something to say, and coach volleyball.
