The event also featured presentations and special recognition for community partners. NBC Palm Springs was honored for its role in spotlighting the initiative. News Director David Reese received a special award, including an artist’s proof of a van wrapped for the Boys and Girls Club, accompanied by a thank-you letter from both the Boys and Girls Club and Dinner with Patsi.
Patsi expressed her gratitude, emphasizing the importance of partnerships in achieving the nonprofit’s goals. NBC Palm Springs noted its honor in collaborating with the community to raise awareness and support for children in foster care throughout the Coachella Valley.
