At its fifth annual Community Engagement Awards ceremony held May 4, 2010, the Center for Internships and Community Engagement(CICE) at California State University, Fullerton (CSUF), recognized THINK Together as its 2010 "Most Committed Partner." THINK Together is one of California's largest and leading providers of academically focused after-school programs serving 50,000 prek-12th grade students at public school sites across Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside & San Bernardino Counties.
THINK Together received one of six annual awards recognizing Cal State Fullerton's community partners, faculty, and students whose leadership and service strengthen the University's community engagement activities including service-learning, academic internships, AmeriCorps projects, and other types of course-related community service.
The "Most Committed Partner" award goes annually to an organization that has contributed time, effort and/or resources to participate in CICE's programs and fulfill its responsibilities as a host site.
CICE's partners include the many nonprofits, government agencies, businesses and community organizations where CSUF students performed more than 1.3 million hours of service during the 2008-09 year. That achievement got Cal State Fullerton named to the U.S. President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll with distinction for the third consecutive year.
The video above premiered at the awards ceremony as part of the CSUF tribute to THINK Together.
