An Evening Celebrating "The Future Hard at Work"

 

For over 25 years, the San Francisco Conservation Corps which got its start under then San Francisco Mayor Dianne Feinstein, has improved the lives of young people while improving the environment.  Long before it was fashionable to "go green," SFCC helped young people improve the environment by recycling, planting gardens, and cleaning up San Francisco while changing their lives.  As the young people worked, they received their education and a pathway to a better life.  Many young people who fell through the cracks, were saved when SFCC gave them  their another chance.  Many headed for unproductive lives turned their lives around through the corps.

SFCC Future Hard At WorkYou can make a difference by coming out on May 5th to celebrate "The Future Hard at Work."  Please join us for a fabulous evening reception filled with delicious food, drinks, our friends and supporters as we celebrate "The Future. Hard at Work." The celebration will take place from 6:00 - 8:30 pm at the historic San Francisco War Memorial & Performing Arts Center's Green Room. Your donation or a ticket which begins at $90 can help turn around the lives of many more young people.  For Tickets & Sponsorship Levels Click Here.

10 X 10-Power of Ten- Everyone can make a difference.  If you can't attend the May 5th event, send in a gift.
