RANCHO CORDOVA, CA (MPG) – The Cordova Recreation & Park District’s (District) Community Engagement Program is underway! The Community Engagement Program, spearheaded by District General Manager Patrick Larkin, is a quarterly program that focuses on giving back to the community.

“I have always been a champion of community service. I believe the more we give, the happier we feel,” said Larkin. “At Cordova Recreation & Park District, we are doing good for our community which provides a natural sense of accomplishment. I am proud of our generous, kind and thoughtful staff as they bring a higher level of service to the community.”

During this quarter, the District collaborated with the Folsom Cordova Unified School District (FCUSD) Homeless Student Services to provide necessities to families in need. The FCUSD Homeless Student Services helps ensure homeless children have an equal opportunity to obtain a high quality education and provides resources to families.

Marjorie Diaz, Education Services Liaison at FCUSD, assisted District Office Manager Drey White in identifying which items would be most beneficial to the families.  District staff contributed various necessities throughout the quarter. On April 15, 2021, Larkin and White presented Diaz with donations of underwear, laundry detergent, softener, dish soap, dryer sheets, toilet paper and paper towels.

The District is proud to collaborate with FCUSD Homeless Student Services to help uplift members in our community.
