San Bruno Community Foundation March Board Meeting Announcement and Crestmoor Scholarship Reminder
Board to Consider Strategic Grant to Bolster the Effectiveness of San Bruno's First Responders
The Foundation's Board of Directors will hold its regular monthly meeting on March 7, 2018. As usual, it will begin at 7:00 p.m. at the San Bruno Senior Center, 1555 Crystal Springs Road. The agenda is posted below, and members of the public are welcome to attend.
Of note, the Board will consider a proposal for a strategic grant to enhance the effectiveness of San Bruno's first responders. Developed in partnership with the San Bruno Police and Fire Departments, the First Responder Effectiveness Strategic Initiative would enable the City of San Bruno to provide emergency sheltering to residents in the event of a natural disaster or other incident, increase first responder preparedness for major public safety incidents at locations considered high probabilty targets, and - through mindfulness, compassion, and resiliency training for all police personnel - strengthen relations between the Police Department and San Bruno's diverse community.
The meeting will also include updates on the Foundation's other partnerships with the City, including the new recreation and aquatics center project, the Community Grants Fund, the Crestmoor Neighborhood Memorial Scholarship program, and the Music Education Strategic Initiative, as well as a report from the Investment Committee and a study session to begin discussion of the Foundation's program strategy going forward.
The complete Board meeting packet, including the agenda for the special meeting, is available for download at www.sbcf.org/meetings. A hard copy of the complete packet will be available for public review with the City Clerk at San Bruno City Hall and at the San Bruno Public Library.
The Board very much encourages, appreciates, and values your attendance and participation at our Board meetings. As is our practice, we will send out a summary of the meeting's highlights in our March e-newsletter, which will also be posted on our website at www.sbcf.org/newsletters.

2018 Crestmoor Scholarship Application Deadline Is Approaching
The application for the 2018 Crestmoor Neighborhood Memorial Scholarship is now available online. The application deadline is Wednesday, March 14, 2018, at 5:00 p.m.
The Crestmoor Scholarship honors the community members who most directly endured the destruction of the 2010 gas pipeline explosion and resulting fire and especially in memory of the eight San Bruno residents who lost their lives in the disaster. The Foundation intends to distribute $120,000 in multi-year scholarships this spring.
High school seniors headed to college and community college students planning to transfer to a four-year college in the fall of 2018 are eligible to apply. Applicants must live or attend a high school or community college located in San Bruno.
Scholarship recipients must demonstrate, as the top criteria, deep engagement and involvement in the San Bruno community. Other factors that will be considered during the selection process include, in no particular order, an applicant's financial need, extracurricular activities, academic record, and examples of leadership, teamwork, and collaboration.
