Mark Zuckerberg Could Help With Affordable Housing, Says SF Resident

Mark Zuckerberg could help San Francisco's Mission District overcome an affordable housing crisis, says one resident.

Mission Local, offering a snapshot into a recent community meeting held by the Mission Economic Development Agency (MEDA), reported that one attendee suggested that Mark Zuckerberg can help bring the balance of affordable housing back to the area.

The Facebook founder and his wife Dr. Priscilla Chan donated $75 million to the San Francisco General Hospital Foundation in February.

It might not be a far-fetched suggestion. Mission Local stated that Karoleen Feng, MEDA's director of community real estate, said in the meeting that they've been talking to local tech companies about how they can help pay for affordable housing.
