Faith First - Healing Racial Divides through God's Love

​Elliot Sands is a community-minded business leader whose career has seen him serve as COO of a homeless-services organization called The SHP Foundation. Today, Elliot Sands brings this experience to his role as the executive director of Faith First.

Faith First is a faith-based organization committed to working toward racial equality. Inspired by the message of love and service described in Hebrews 10:24, the organization brings together churches in the San Francisco Bay Area with the goal of connecting fellow believers from different ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds.

In coming together, parishioners are able to share in God’s love and break down societal barriers. Through Faith First, parishioners have specific opportunities to heal divides in their communities by teaming up to participate in service projects.

Faith First was founded by marketing executive Vintage Foster and is headed by a team of local community and religious leaders. To support the organization’s work or to volunteer for its projects, please visit www.livefaithfirst.org.
