RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ACCEPTANCE

SAN FRANCISCO ASSOCIATION OF FIREFIGHTERS
LOCAL 1507 CHARITY FOUNDATION.
WHEREAS, the Fire Department received a donation from the South San Francisco
Association of Firefighters Local 1507 Charity Foundation, a local non-profit organization that supports
various community efforts such as holding breast cancer awareness programs, sponsoring burn victims'
attendance at summer burn camps, hosting an annual pancake breakfast to support the local VFW, and
assisting with the annual Holiday Toy Drive and other volunteering efforts; and
WHEREAS, in December 2020, the Fire, Police and other City Departments provided gift
cards to approximately 675 children during the Holiday Food distribution. The overwhelming support
from the community resulted in each child receiving a $35 gift card allowing them to shop for a toy of
their choice; and
WHEREAS, funds from the Local 1507 Charity Foundation will be used to offset the cost of
purchasing Toy Drive gift cards and peripheral items and reserves needed to support future programs.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of South San
Francisco that it accepts $31,370.66 in donations from the South San Francisco Association of
