The Acalanes Area Chapter of National Charity League - a mother-daughter non-profit organization dedicated to serving local communities - once again celebrated their graduating seniors during the 2012 Senior Celebration Program March 3 at the Claremont Hotel.
Nationally, there are over 168 chapters committed to fostering the mother-daughter relationship through philanthropic, leadership and cultural activities. Membership in the Acalanes Area Chapter is drawn from the Lamorinda communities of Lafayette, Moraga and Orinda. Participation begins in seventh grade and continues through the senior year of high school. The girls are honored for their many hours of philanthropic work volunteering at Foster-A-Dream, Lafayette Library, California Shakespeare, Juvenile Diabetes, Smiley Dog and Special Olympics, among others.
These volunteer activities combined with activities focused on leadership development and cultural awareness, form the three pillars of National Charity League, and help to initiate a lifelong commitment to community service and deepen the bond between mother and daughter.
