The Community Relations Committee was created back in 2012 with Operation Boot Box. This event was created and spearheaded by the El Paso Women's League, which afforded twenty children with a brand new pair of shoes during the holiday season. Chief Enriquez of the Anthony TX Police Department enlisted the help of Maria Solis a Parent Liaison for Canutillo ISD and Cpt. Martin Lerma of the West Valley Fire Department. That event paved the way for the CRC.
Plagued with petty vandalism around the City, Chief Enriquez met with Mrs. Solis and Cpt. Lerma to create events for the youth of the community to have in an effort to curb the vandalism. The main focus was on a movie theater. The concept blossomed into what is known as Movie night. The event gained notoriety and money raised from the concession sales afforded the organization to provide College Scholarships for High School Seniors.
