BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE CYPRESS RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICT,

for profit foundation to support the Recreation and Community Services District's facilities,
programs, and services; and

grants and other innovative funding; and
WHEREAS, the foundation will partner with community supporting organizations
in the pursuit of that funding.
