Scholarship Awarded and New Officers

It has been a busy time for the Leona Valley Sertoma Club!

Recent activities include the awarding of a scholarship and the election of new officers. Leona Valley Sertoma continues a tradition of involvement with an eye to helping the communities of the Lakes and Valleys to grow and improve. These are made possible through the various activities and fundraisers sponsored by the Leona Valley Sertoma Club and the contributions of the incredible folks who live in our communities. Leona Valley Sertoma is always looking for new members and invites anyone who might be interested in membership to please email Jan Clark at: 1grannyjanny@att.net.  We would love to hear from you and personally invite you to one of our 8am breakfast meetings held on the first and third Saturday of each month at Jack’s Place Café, 40352 90th Street West, in Leona Valley. You may also call Jan for info at 661-270-9268.

Our Most Recent Scholarship Recipient

On May 19, 2017, Antelope Valley College scholarship recipient, Kyle Laitinen, was proudly honored and awarded a $1000 scholarship. Kyle, who is majoring in deaf studies, will be transferring to Cal State Northridge. Deaf and hard of hearing is a primary issue for Sertoma International, so making it a specific criteria to receive this scholarship is to either major in deaf studies or personally be afflicted with a hearing disability. Kyle plans to continue his studies to include tutoring and interpreting in sign language to students who have hearing disabilities. Kyle’s award was presented by Sertoma President, John Seymour (far left) and Sertoma Chairman of the Board, Jan Clark. We certainly wish him the very best!

Contributions for Turkeys

AC Dave contributes $300 for turkey fund.

On October 3, 2015, Dave Millard, owner of AC Dave’s heating and Air Conditioning, presented a $300 check to Leona Valley Sertoma to purchase turkeys for our annual holiday turkey giveaway. Each year we provide a combiantion of turkeys, canned goods, gifts cards, and toys to very special families that are going through some tough times.
Our motto is, Service to Mankind, and we make it our mission to be as helpful as we can.
