After winning a highly competitive state grant, one small nonprot will build a
new recreation center this year that will double as an emergency shelter during
climate and other emergencies.
With a $10 million Community Resilience Center grant, Pogo Park – a Richmond
nonprot with a mission to transform lives by transforming public spaces – will
construct Contra Costa County’s rst CRC at Harbour-8 Park. Harbour-8 is a
two-block park on the Richmond Greenway, which is a 2.5-mile trail landscaped
with community gardens and art.
