Alameda County Supervisor Keith Carson Makes It Happen!

Keith Carson, Supervisor, 5th District of Alameda County knows how important young people are. In addition, he is a proud supporter of efforts to build bridges of understanding between generations and across artificially constructed divides. That is why when the Berkeley Boosters / PAL program approached him for help with their programs, he was fast to act!                                              (continued below)
Mr. Carson is familiar with the 20 year history of the Boosters providing innovative programs to youth in Berkeley that build connections between at-risk youth and our Berkeley Police officers. So, when he was told that the Boosters had so many kids in their programs, that they didn't have enough vehicles to take them on their famous outdoor education trips, Keith was able to arrange for the donation of two used vehicles, one a 15 passenger van, to help make sure the kids got to experience their sailing, biking, hiking, backpacking, kayaking and other trips.
