The Lamorinda Chapter of National Charity League on March 27 recognized and celebrated its 21 graduating seniors in a lovely ceremony filled with poignant speeches, dinner, dancing, and a generous donation to Monument Crisis Center. Alexa Gambero and Tina Ross from MCC accepted the class gift at the event, which took place at the Saint Mary's Soda Center in Moraga, marking the culmination of six years of service to the community for these dedicated young women. They began their journey in the mother-daughter philanthropic organization as seventh graders, and have collectively volunteered more than 5,300 hours to those in need.
NCL's Lamorinda Chapter supports many local nonprofit organizations through its mission to foster mother-daughter relationships in its commitment to community service, leadership development, and cultural experiences. Philanthropies include 10,000 Lunches, American Heart Association, Blue Star Moms, Cake 4 Kids, Child Abuse Prevention Council, Community Reading Buddies, East Bay Heritage Quilters, Food Bank of Contra Costa County, Lamorinda Village, Loaves & Fishes, New Day for Children, White Pony Express, and more than a dozen others. |
