The San Francisco Health Commission approved two companion resolutions authorizing the Department of Public Health to accept two donations.
Gregory Wong, DPH administrative analyst, asked commissioners to amend a prior resolution to accept an in-kind gift of hygiene and snack boxes valued at $15,750 from the San Francisco Public Health Foundation. Wong said the donation was delayed pending a memorandum of understanding and subsequent legal review; the commission moved, seconded and approved the resolution by roll call (SEG 189-206, 208-234).
Leo Palacios, Laguna Honda gift fund program manager, presented a $24,999 donation from the Anthony R. Guardino Exemption Trust to support resident well-being at Laguna Honda Hospital. Palacios summarized planned uses and asked for the commission's approval; commissioners voted to accept and expend the funds by roll call (SEG 244-256, 276-289).
Both resolutions passed by affirmative roll-call votes of commissioners present. Commissioners thanked the donors and DPH staff for facilitating timely use of the funds.
