(update excerpt in Blog Post > Settings to change appearance on site)

Under Rev. Dr. Amos C. Browns' leadership, Third Baptist Church of San Francisco has established a summer school program, created an After-School Academic enrichment program (Back-on-Track) in partnership with Congregation EMANU-EL, the Charles A. Tindley Academy of Music; sponsored more African refugees than any local congregation in the nation and sponsored 80 children from Tanzania to receive heart surgery in the United States. He led the Bay Area in raising $68,000 for the Somalian Relief Effort in 1984, led in founding the Black American Response to the African Crisis, which raised $300,000 for the Ethiopian Famine crises, and led an airlift to Ethiopia under the auspices of the National Baptist Convention.
