Thanks to everyone who joined us at the Volunteer Party on Thursday, October 15!
The evening began with refreshments and hearty snacks. Volunteers then participated in a rousing game of get-to-know-you BINGO with an array of prizes. It was amazing to see how enthusiastically and quickly everyone got to know one another!
Our Deputy Director Emily Cohen offered a toast to the crowd and Kit Solowy, Volunteer Program Manager, presented the Penguin Awards. Honorees received a certificate of our appreciation and a tasty Loree’s Catering cookie house—the sweetness of the cookies for their generosity, and the house for what we are all working towards: a housed San Francisco. It was a very heartfelt affair!
2015 PHC Penguin Award Recipients:
- Outstanding Corporate Volunteer Group: Salesforce, accepted by Anna Currin, Steve Fadden, and Steve Nahm
- Outstanding City Collaborator: Human Services Agency, accepted by Alfredo Sanchez, Edgardo Pagaduan, and Rosana Soriano
