Bay FC Coaches Albertin Montoya and Jason Goodson were thrilled to support our partners at Meriwest Credit Union at the YWCA Silicon Valley Walk a Mile In Her Shoes charity walk yesterday evening.
In an effort to raise awareness on gender-based violence, Head Coach Montoya even donned a pair of stilettos as he and Coach Goodson led warm ups for participants.
Our community is so lucky to have leaders like Head Coach Montoya, Coach Goodson, and the entire Bay FC team! Thank you for joining us at Walk a Mile in Their Shoes and for supporting services for survivors.

Camden is a vibrant, multicultural borough, with 45.4% of Camden residents born outside the UK, contributing to its rich diversity, albeit with significant socio-economic challenges:
- At 41%, Camden has the second-highest poverty rate in London.
- Camden faces the worst housing affordability in the capital.
- London’s Black and Asian communities have been disproportionately affected by the cost-of-living crisis.
- Over 2 in 5 Bangladeshis and nearly 1 in 3 Black Londoners live in overcrowded housing conditions in Camden, which is considerably higher than the UK average.
- There has been a 39% rise in hate crimes all over London in 2023 compared to 2022.
Our incredible community researchers are examining the impact of structural racism on housing, education, employment, and safety across the borough.
Findings from our research will inform policy recommendations aimed at key development areas, such as enhancing community infrastructure, improving educational quality with better cultural training and diverse curriculum design, and fostering pathways to employment through collaboration with local businesses.
Join us in working to address and dismantle racial inequalities in Camden, and creating more just and inclusive communities for all!
Participatory grantmaking and cross-sector social change
