The Franklin Park Coalition is proud to receive the Citizen’s Bank Champion in Action Environmental Impact Award for 2010. This honor includes a $25,000 check from Citizen’s Bank and advertisements at local branches, as well as coverage by NECN.
Hundreds of nonprofits apply for Citizen’s in Action each year. FPC was accepted based on its fiscal leadership and unique stewardship of Franklin Park, the largest green space in Boston.
Both Youth Crews, FPC staff and board members gathered at the Golf Clubhouse last Wednesday to receive the award, which was presented by Citizen’s Bank CEO Steve Woods and NECN Station manager Stacey Marks Bronner. State Representative Liz Manilla, whose district includes the park, gave a speech which praised our teens for their hard work.
