Gifts delivered, wishes fulfilled!✨ Continuing a long tradition of giving, HPS contributed to the Family Giving Tree 2023 Holiday Wish Drive by hosting our own drive—in person and online. Each wish we fulfilled is connected to an actual child, senior, or homeless adult in the Bay Area.

We are grateful for this opportunity to personally and positively influence the lives of those in our community who need the extra lift, especially during the holidays.

HPS helped sort and box 39,000 lbs of produce during our annual Community Day of Service
at Second Harvest of Silicon Valley! All the produce we packed will be delivered to over 1,500 families tonight and tomorrow just in time for Thanksgiving dinner. Together we can make a difference.

A watercolorful day in the studio!

HPS hosted a watercolor class to connect and express our artistic sides while learning from none other than in-house virtuoso, John Spotorno. Looks like we have a group of budding watercolorists!

Thanks, John, for volunteering your time, talents, and even supplies to show us the strokes.🖌️

John Spotorno continues to share his talent and passion. This week he is teaching the Wonders of Watercolors summer camp at Pacific Art League in Palo Alto! Keep shining, Spot, and thank you for sharing your gift to inspire young artists…and all of us!

Join John Spotorno along with Calina Ferraro from Integral Group as they present at AIA San Diego’s live event:

GETTING TO ZERO: SUSTAINABLE HEALTHCARE
Wednesday, August 31- 4-6pm

This course takes on the perception that sustainable, net-zero designs cannot be implemented in healthcare projects. It also proves that higher performance doesn’t have to mean higher cost.

Using a case study of the first net zero medical office building as a reference, this course highlights design strategies that can be used in healthcare applications to improve the performance of buildings. It identifies some of the unique challenges of healthcare projects from a sustainability standpoint and proposes options to resolve these.

Our Community Day of Service makes a comeback at Second Harvest of Silicon Valley! Together with a team that also included members of the U.S. National Guard, we sorted and boxed approximately 54,000 pounds of produce that will go directly to the community within 48 hours. Despite several setbacks, we were glad to finally reunite and give back in this meaningful way during a time when help is needed more than ever.
