“CPS could not provide these valuable opportunities to our community without the support of thoughtful organizations like Stewart’s Shops. We are immensely grateful to them for their donation, as well as to the numerous individuals who have supported the Holiday Match Program,” said CPS Executive Director Jason L. Dominie.
