<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">MCF's first annual Donor Appreciation Luncheon was a raving success! </span><span style="text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Though we wish we could have invited everyone who has supported us in one way or another, we primarily invited donors who have been loyal supporters since the 1990s. Tina at the Little Whale was a fabulous host, </span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">spoiling</span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> us with ros</span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: rgba(0 , 0 , 0 , 0.870588); text-indent: 0px;">é</span><span style="text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> and white wine, egg rolls, calamari, shrimp salad, spaghetti, and other delicious treats. The portions were generous! Our 2017-2018 president, Debbie spoke on her appreciation for the donors' dedication, introduced our diligent board members, and summarized our most recent successes (the scholarships we offered to two graduating seniors, the grant to Life Moves, our work rehabilitating the Community Center, and our contribution to the MCTV documentary, among others). Meanwhile, our wonderful donors spent three hours gabbing away.<b> Donors, we hope you know how much we appreciate your pledges -- we could not help Millbrae continually grow and prosper without you!</b></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-kerning: none;">The Millbrae Community Foundation extends it condolences on the passing of founding member, Kay Runkle.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-kerning: none;">Kay was born over one hundred years ago on October 30, 1916. She spent her early years on a wheat and dairy farm in Oklahoma before earning her Library Science degree from Emporia State University and her B.A. in American Literature from Oklahoma State. After touring Europe’s most magnificent sights in 1939, she enlisted as an officer in the U.S. Navy WAVES in 1942. While in the service, she fell in love with an Army officer, Albert Runkle from Millbrae, CA. Kay lived in Millbrae for 60 years afterwards. She served as Taylor Intermediate School’s librarian for 18 years, actively participated in New Visions Methodist Church, and volunteered in many organizations serving underprivileged groups and seniors. Kay received both the Millbrae Woman of the Year Award and the Women’s Hall of Fame Award for her tireless service. In her free time, she enjoyed traveling, sewing, painting, gardening, reading, and spending time with her loved ones.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-kerning: none;">Kay joined MCF in April 1995, when the foundation was still in the process of gaining its official non-profit status. Kay thrived in her role as secretary. She, Victor Graff, R. Terry Bauer, and Millie Bishop met regularly to produce the founding documents. As such, Kay’s name is forever engraved on the Foundation’s Articles of Incorporation. We could not have done the work we do today without her service and her participation in conceptualizing MCF.\<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">MCF provided $1000 for the building of a new shed for Cub Scout Pack 355, which began in June 2015. The site required clean‐up of brush, old pallets, removal of several large tree roots, and leveling. The foundation construction consisted of laying pressure treated ground contact redwood 4x4s on cinder block foundations. The 4x4s were connected together with galvanized corner brackets. Floor joists, beyond the shed instructions, were hung across the foundation and braced from below with cinder blocks. The additional joists and bracing was in excess of what the instructions called for and provided for a much more stable floor. ¾ inch plywood was used for the flooring. During the construction of the foundation, the walls of the shed were pre‐fabricated. Once the walls were constructed they were secured in place. Interior shelving was installed, then the roof joists and sheathing and finally doors and window. The roof was covered with tar paper and composite shingles.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Construction took approximately 6 or 7 days over a period of two months due to availability of the dads of the Pack. Don Meiner acted as the project leader and engineer. A special recognition goes to Johnson Woo. He is a very good carpenter and knows his way around a hammer. Move in to the shed occurred in August much to delight of Julie Turner and Lisa Price as all the Cub Scout containers left either their backyards or garages. Pack 355 heartily thanks MCF for the grant, and extends a tour of the shed to MCF members!</span><br />

<br /></div>
MCF board members Joan Chipser (Secretary) and Teresa Anselmo (Webmaster) will be attending the Life Steps Donor Appreciation Reception on February 20, 2016 in San Francisco. Last July, MCF approved a donation ($2,900) to their organization that would fund child-sized tables and chairs for their childcare program center here in Millbrae. <a href="http://www.lifestepsfoundation.org/">Life Steps Foundation</a> itself, founded in 1982, is dedicated to meeting the health, psychological and socioeconomic challenges of people throughout their lifespan who are experiencing mental, developmental or physical disabilities.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Teresa and Joan are very excited to attend the event, and to personally meet those that MCF helped. It is not often that we get an opportunity to witness such good things happening in our community.<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 18.76px;"> On February 6, 2016, Millbrae hosted its first "Super Chili Bowl" (</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 18.76px;">yes, we were also initially confused at what that entailed). That morning (at 8am, way too early!), a 5K course started and finished in Central Park and winded through the heart of Millbrae. After successful completion of the course, runners enjoyed a free pancake breakfast provided by the Millbrae Lions Club. At 11am, the Super Bowl of Chili Cookoff commenced! Live music serenaded in the background while the contestants worked hard chopping onions and prepping beans. Other contestants included the Central County Firefighters, Pape Meat Company, Marshall Realty, and other local Millbraeans. Our MCF participants had a fantastic time -- who knew they were secretly chefs in their free time?</span></span></div>
