San Pedro-South Bay – Celebrates 80th Anniversary

SPSBThe Assistance League of San Pedro-South Bay celebrated their 80th anniversary at their Chapter House on February 6th.    The event was attended by a sellout crowd of 150 people.

The attendees dressed in 1930’s attire and Mae West was the Master of Ceremony.  It was like a Hollywood opening night.  Mr. Joseph Bowker was at the piano while guests enjoyed appetizers and cocktails. Ted Johnson provided music from the 30’s for the dining and dancing pleasure of the guests.

A raffle was held to help support our philanthropic programs which include Operation School Bell® (providing school uniforms for those in need), the Frances J. Johnson Dental Center (dental service for children of low income families), the Weavers (visually impaired) monthly luncheon, Operation Hug (teddy bears taken to emergency room for children in traumatic situations).

The Assistance League of San Pedro-South Bay is an all-volunteer organization devoted to philanthropic programs that serve the needs of children, families and seniors of the community.  Our philanthropic programs are supported by the operation of a Gift/Consignment Shop and a Post Office (the only all-volunteer Post Office in the U.S.), special fundraising events and donations.
