Edgewood Center for Children and Families’ Post

Edgewood was pleased to be one of the host agencies for members of the 27th UPS Community Internship Program cohort in February.  These upper managers come to San Francisco for three weeks, dropping their usual job duties and focusing on the community. Through site visits, volunteering, and unique cultural activities, they become more aware of community members' daily challenges. They even stay in Chinatown at Donaldina Cameron House to be immersed in the community. While at Edgewood for the day, they painted and decorated raised planter boxes for our campus that will be used in our garden and grounds to provide a healing environment for our youth. These leaders, some of whom supervise over 1,000 people, return to their hometowns to set a company culture that sees employees and customers as people first, always seeking increased awareness, sensitivity, and understanding.
