I loved getting to learn more about the impact Civicorps has on the Corpsmembers and staff, the partners they support, and how they transform the landscapes around us. Highly recommend checking this organization out and how you might be able to support them.
Today went spent a beautiful morning with our friends at East Bay Regional Park District, Martin Luther King, Jr. Regional Shoreline Park!⠀ ⠀ We are always excited to welcome corporate partners and our community to conservation project sites to see their investment at Civicorps in action. Corpsmembers engage in paid job training to maintain our precious public lands, gain skills, earn certifications, and join a highly supportive community along the way.⠀ ⠀ Thank you to Ranger Monique (an East Bay Conservation Corps alum!) for welcoming us into your park and guiding Corpsmembers in their work. Thank you to Mia Esperanza Brown ( Swinerton), Andi Burgess, C.P.M. (Matson, Inc.), Rebecca Tang ( JPMorganChase ), Joel Flory (VSCO®), Malcolm Stanley and Lily Allen, and international students from CA Coastal Conservancy for joining us today and learning more about Civicorps. Finally, thanks to our wonderful Board Members who accompanied us, Nita Kirby, Colette Lucas-Conwell, and Alli Chagi-Starr. These fabulous women help us maintain a vibrant and diverse community of support, and we’re grateful for their leadership. #CorparatePartners #sponsorship #sitevisit #conservationcareers #greenjobs #youthdevelopment #civicorps #eastbay
