A Proclamation from the San Diego County Board of Supervisors for Exemplifying the Highest Ideals of Public Service:
As you know, like many of you I am committed to putting a little bit of good back out into our community and striving to leave our people and planet better than we found it.
We are judged by the company we keep!
I am currently honored to serve as board President of NCPC (North County Philanthropy Council).
This week, NCPC, which is a convenor of convenors and a nonprofit for nonprofits, known for its annual Volunteer Awards Celebration, San Diego Gives, our frequent community convenings and newly formed Impact Leadership Accelerator to support emerging leaders was proudly recognized with a proclamation from the San Diego Board of Supervisors to celebrate the spirit of giving in San Diego County as part of National Giving Month.
You can see short vid of Supervisor Jim Desmond awarding us the proclamation for Outstanding Service, Leadership and Commitment to the Citizens of San Diego County and my brief remarks here if you are interested:
Thanks to all the NCPC members, board, staff and all the community partners we serve for helping make San Diego America’s Kindest and most Purposeful Region and to all of you for your generosity of spirit and care for our community!
We ARE Better Together.

Dogs trigger biological changes that boost teen mental health:
