π΄ THANK YOU FOR AN INCREDIBLE PALM-A-PALOOZA 2026! π΄
Our Palm-a-Palooza Homecoming brought the community together for a night to remember. Together, we raised more than $120,000, with more still coming in, making this our biggest Palm-a-Palooza ever. Every one of those dollars helps Pacifica Resource Center support the resilience and well-being of families and individuals in Pacifica and along the San Mateo County coast. We are deeply grateful to everyone who made it possible.
π A special shout-out to our Spirit Award winners, the team from HOPE: Healing, Overdose Prevention, and Education, whose standout costumes and neighborly support for PRC captured the true spirit of the night! Palm-a-Palooza is a reminder that we're a network of neighbors who show up for one another, and our community is stronger for it.
