To celebrate Public Service Recognition Week, the Cordova Recreation & Park District (CRPD) recently held our quarterly staff luncheon. Continuing the spirit of service to lift up those around us, CRPD also organized a donation drive to support the Folsom Cordova Unified School District’s (FCUSD) Families in Transition (FIT) Services program. This program provides vital resources to families who are facing economic hardships that have resulted in homelessness, food insecurity, health concerns, and a lack of resources.
CRPD staff came together to collect essential hygiene and homecare items, including toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, feminine hygiene products, razors, deodorant, laundry detergent, dish soap, paper towels and toilet paper. Thanks to the generosity of staff, more than 400 items were donated to support families in need.
This donation drive builds on CRPD’s ongoing commitment to giving back to the community. Earlier this year, staff raised over $1,400 for the FIT services program. CRPD looks forward to continuing our partnership with FCUSD and remaining dedicated to uplifting and supporting those we serve.
Community members are encouraged to support the important work of the FIT Services program, which continues to welcome contributions. More information about the program is available at fcusd.org/educational-services/social-emotional-learning-sel-and-educational-equity/families-in-transition.
