Combined Health Agencies receives grant from Ford Motor Company

Combined Health Agencies received a grant from Ford Motor Company to support the production of public service announcements urging a commitment to health in the San Diego community. 

The grant was given as a part of Ford’s Operation Goodwill, an innovative initiative designed to increase Ford's philanthropic and community-related commitment in select cities across America. Through this program, Ford Fund is partnering with its dealers in providing funding to support a combination of grants, safety and educational programs and volunteer activities that enhance quality of life.

“Operation Goodwill gives us the opportunity to better target our philanthropy and community outreach activities, and to solidly demonstrate that Ford has been, and will continue to be, a supportive corporate citizen in the community,” said Jim Vella, president, Ford Motor Company Fund and Community Services.

Combined Health Agencies thanks the crew at Multi Image Productions for the assistance with production of the public service announcements.

San Diego Science Festival

San Diego region's first science festival to be launched March 2009

What would the world’s largest game of Operation look like?  Do you have what it takes to live green? How does a baseball pitcher throw a knuckleball, a pitch with no movement, to a helpless batter? 

These and other intriguing questions will be answered at the inaugural San Diego Science Festival (SDSF), planned as one of the largest multicultural, multigenerational, multidisciplinary celebrations of science ever seen on the West Coast. The festival will descend on San Diego with more than 500 activities across the county in the month of March. From the science of earthquakes to the physics of skateboarding, the San Diego Science Festival promises to make science accessible, interactive and fun, highlighting the impact of science and innovation on our lives.

The grand finale will be the SDSF Expo in Balboa Park on Saturday, April 4, 2009. This free expo features hands-on science for everyone, from the smallest child to even the most established scientist. Expo-goers can learn the latest ways to conserve precious water resources one drop at a time or discover how the cars of tomorrow will resemble blenders as they mulch vegetable oil into fuel, plus there will be a ton of interactive activities, comedians and stage shows to captivate and excite any aspiring scientist.

The San Diego Science Festival is partnering with more than 125 collaborators – leading businesses and organizations in the community that wish to offer their guidance, financial support and time to help teach the scientific leaders of tomorrow. Also involved are all area major colleges and universities, research institutes, major school districts, school science clubs, professional science societies, Balboa Park cultural institutions, informal science educators and centers, various military and community organizations, science outreach programs and cross-border science institutions. For a full list, visit www.sdsciencefestival.com.

Inspired by international science festivals that currently draw crowds in the hundreds of thousands, the goal of the San Diego Science Festival is to increase community awareness of science and inspire our nation’s youth to consider entering science-related careers.  At the same time, the Festival will unite our community, inspire educational dialogue within participating families, and showcase the amazing science and innovation taking place in San Diego. A fitting location, San Diego is on the forefront of scientific research and development and is home to many of top scientific corporations.
