Join the Chamber community this December 4th and hear the inspiring outcome of the following stories. You don’t want to miss it!
Shirley Moore – Toberman Neighborhood Center
“One day, I decided to come to Toberman because my family really needed help. It got to the point where we thought of doing something that we could not be proud of doing. The moment I stepped foot in Toberman, I knew we were not going to b homeless and hungry anymore.”
Ellena Zimmerman – Community’s Child
“Something happens inside you when you are abandoned by your parents. Even though I was raised in love, I believed deep inside that I was never good enough. This false belief system led me to accept a less than healthy first relationship. When one of his beatings during my pregnancy sent me to the hospital, it was finally enough for me to gather up the courage to leave him.”
Melissa Arechiga – Harbor Interfaith
“Ms. Arechiga reached out to Harbor Interfaith in 2005 after she and her children became homeless. With the help of Harbor Interfaith, she was able to attend Los Angeles Harbor Community College and save money to find permanent housing.”
Begin your holiday season at this uplifting Women in Business event showcasing the various services that make a difference in the community.
“A Celebration of Perseverance” is coming to the DoubleTree by Hilton in Torrance on December 4th, 2015 at 12:00 noon.
