Body
OVERVIEW
The San Diego County Board of Supervisors (Board) Policy A-112 and the San Diego County Administrative Code Section 66 requires Board approval to accept gifts and donations over $5,000. The County of San Diego (County) Health and Human Services Agency, Child and Family Well-Being (CFWB) periodically receives monetary gifts and in-kind donations of over $5,000 to benefit children temporarily residing at the A.B. and Jessie Polinsky Children's Center (PCC) and children involved with CFWB. PCC is a County-operated Temporary Shelter Care Facility administered by CFWB and provides 24-hour care for up to 10 calendar days for children and youth under 18 years of age who can no longer safely remain with their family of origin due to abuse, neglect, and/or abandonment.
On April 8, 2025 (5), the Board approved to accept the gifts and donations valued at $47,893 for Calendar Year (CY) 2024. Today's action requests the Board to accept gifts and donations valuing $26,479 for CY 2025 which includes $20,957 for the benefit of children at PCC and $5,522 for the benefit of children involved with CFWB.
This item supports the County vision of a just, sustainable, and resilient future for all, specifically those communities and populations in San Diego County that have been historically left behind, as well as our ongoing commitment to the regional Live Well San Diego vision of healthy, safe, and thriving communities. This will be accomplished by furthering collective efforts to maximize resources through community partnerships and making these resources available and accessible.
