Pam

Homeless in San Diego

Meet Pam! Pam has overcome adversity and is ready to help others do the same! Pam is one of Interfaith’s newest employees. Despite recently joining, she has had to become familiar with our motto of "helping people help themselves" long before she joined us. Adopted from the Philippines at an early age, Pam grew up in Fallbrook where she often felt isolated and without a real support system. At the height of the pandemic, her life at home and relationships were not healthy. To escape the struggles at home, she became homeless and often couch surfed. Although Pam went without a home for a long time, she persevered and enrolled at UC Riverside where she worked hard to earn a degree in Social and Behavioral Sciences and even made the Dean’s list for academic excellence! Today, Pam is excited to share and use her experiences to help people in need overcome their own difficult situations, all while continuing to further her education and goals. Pam embodies our mission of helping people in need overcome difficult situations and reach new heights!
