“One Paseo is an important part of San Diego – a place that brings everyone together,” says John Kilroy, CEO of Kilroy Realty. “Now more than ever, as our communities continue to cope with rapid changes and many unknowns, our actions are deeply driven by how One Paseo and Kilroy can make a positive impact. We are proud to support our local schools as they safely gear up for this upcoming year.”
The $107,000 donation directly benefits eight school districts within a 20 mile radius of One Paseo, including: Solana Beach School District, Cardiff School District, Encinitas School District, Poway Unified School District, Rancho Santa Fe School District, Del Mar Union School District, San Dieguito High School District and San Diego Unified School District. In providing the donation, One Paseo hopes to help ease the burden as local schools begin the 2020-2021 school year and all the challenges being presented to the teachers, staff and school facilities realted to coronavirus.
“What a wonderful gesture to reach out to us and provide financial support to transform our physical learning spaces to comply with the health orders. It’s rare to receive unsolicited support and much appreciated,” said Cindy Marten, Superintendent of San Diego Unified School District.
