wife’s help hired employees and restored the location’s aesthetic value. On October 6, Sandoval’s business, CJ Tires (located at 695 E. Valley Blvd.), was the highlight of the City of Colton’s Business Focus. Each month the city council chooses a business in the city to honor for their dedication in providing residents with quality service and products. Councilmember Dr. Luis Gonzalez

took it upon himself to ensure the Sandoval’s family received recognition for their commitment to the city’s economic stability. Maria said the occasion has been a blessing. “Our relationship with the city has been great,” she said. “We’re blessed to have the support of our community’s leadership. We will continue to give back to Colton.” Gonzalez commended the Sandoval’s for their commitment to the city’s economic growth.

“He [Froylan] has done a fantastic job and has reached his dream,” said Gonzalez. “The Sandoval’s are contributing to the business culture in our city.” Froylan thanked everyone in the room after receiving a certificate from councilmember Gonzalez. “I’d like to thank the city for giving us the opportunity to grow in this amazing city,” I want to thank Dr. G for this award. I thank everyone.”

Manager Arthur Morgan said in February that believes Colton’s continuing economic growth will depend on his department’s ability to efficiently promote property value to attract high end retail companies and corporations, while also promoting local entrepreneurship. Development plans have already been laid out for the city’s westside. During a special meeting on January 27, the council decided to place the California University of Science and Medicine (Cal Med) as their top priority for 2015.

Active Times: Rain did not slow down too many people this last weekend as San Bernardino Valley residents stepped out to participate in the Believe Walk, the Health Fair and the Symphony. Many families took advantage of the free health and dental services and information booths provided at the Binational Health Fair organized and sponsored by the Mexican Consulate. Participants enjoyed the many activities and give always dealing with nutrition and exercise. Kiwanis Club of Greater San Bernardino, with help from the KKids from Del Rosa Elementary, provided water and Gatorade to everyone. Kudos goes to Marielena Shorett on her excellent job as emcee of the event. The Believe Walk was a tremendous success as friends, co-workers and families participated in raising funds for cancer research. All the walkers, organizers, volunteers and sponsors did a great job. The San Bernardino Symphony, led by conductor Frank Paul Fetta, opened its 87th season with a wonderful program, Mosaico Latino featuring the unique symphonic sounds from Latin America. Two prestigious musical talents were featured. Will Hagen, who placed in the top three in the Queen Elizabeth International Violin Competition, was the outstanding soloist in the Edward Lalo composition - Symphonies Espagnol. Tenor Gustavo Hernandez delighted the audience with a selection in Mateo Oliva's Suite de Lara and later with Amorcito Corazon by Manuel Esperon and Jurame by Maria Grever. As Judith Valles, Symphony Board President said, " Gustavo Hernandez has been blessed with a tenor voice so reminiscent of the great Pedro Infante you will not believe he is not the one singing on the stage." It was heartwarming to have the Mariachi Youth Academy delight the audience playing and singing traditional selections and later to join the orchestra in the finale. Dr. Ernie Garcia presented a pre-concert lecture and the Latino Art Association set up an exhibit in the California Room. Bravo to all!

By San Bernardino Generation Now

n 2013, a year after San Bernardino declared bankruptcy, a small group of individuals, formed a recall effort that upset the status quo. Community leaders, organizations, business owners, and young people witnessed the recall of four city officials and the election of a Mayor supported by the recall group, Save San Bernardino. At that time, a group of youth organizers brought together ambitious leaders to create San Bernardino Generation Now. We were passionate residents who were ready to improve the city. We became frustrated with the leadership; it gave us the opportunity to engage young voters in local elections. Since then, we have worked to civically engage young people, whether it be cleaning a park on a weekend, beautifying the parks with murals, or having voter registration drives in the fall. In light of San Bernardino’s underwhelming voter turnout statistics (14-percent voter turnout in 2013) SBGN members have taken the initiative to increase voter turnout through multiple strategies. Worried at the prospect of further apathy taking precedent among residents, we utilized critical organizing principles to motivate the community to take action. This began with a campaign to increase access to candidate information, rather than limit civic education to specific organized candidate forums. San Bernardino’s bankruptcy wasn't just a wake up call for residents, but the waking of a

sleeping giant. We are experiencing the beginning of a social movement that is bringing young leaders together to engage in the workings of our community. Here we are in Fall of 2015--in the face of continuing political turmoil and complacency--registering voters, cleaning public recreational areas, restoring abandoned buildings, and promoting the arts in order to continue the rebuilding of our city. We saw leadership change in our community in 2013 and we might see change again. This November we have two highly debated city council seats, with five candidates in the 7th ward and four in the 6th. In addition, we have nine candidates running for school board. SBGN believes it is important for voters to know the values our candidates hold. That is why we have interviewed candidates on issues residents care about. We have uploaded those interviews to youtube and you can check them out to learn more before making your decision. We highly encourage everyone to view all of them, regardless of ward, because if our city leaders do not have unified goals for the improvement of San Bernardino it will be difficult to move forward. There were a selection of questions that were mandatory, these included interview topics regarding the candidate’s background(s), and their and views on jobs, education and community partnerships, public safety, and Downtown San Bernardino. Additionally there were optional questions about topics, such as conservation, the Arts, Marijuana Policy, Public Transportation, and Community Building. If you would like to contact San Bernardino Generation Now for partnership requests, get involved in local Community projects, or request assistance from SBGN members be sure to visit our website: sbgenerationnow.com. Once there you can check out our Monthly Calendar for local Community Events including the renovation of the Cultural Center building located on E St. and Baseline hosted by the San Bernardino Concert Association, Seccombe Lake Park Clean-ups hosted by SBVC’s Puente Club and SBGN alternately, and our Monthly Local Business Mixers.

Water wasted while city tells us to conserve

I’m tired of hearing from our state, county and city officials about not watering our lawns and wasting water.

The past months, I have taken over 75 photos of local water waste and sent them to mayors, Water Department managers and others, and virtually got no response.

Do city officials drive around with their eyes closed? I’ve met

I was present and participated at the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors’ meeting on July 21.

The Board of Supervisors approved the military use of the Barstow/Dagget Airport. A gentleman with military experience expressed his opposition to this military exercise. In fact, that day roughly 10 people spoke against this military maneuvering. It took the Board of Supervisors all of one minute to unanimously approve of this agenda item; it was under the “consent calendar” a list of so-called noncontroversial topics. The supervisors did not address

the concerns expressed that morning; we were invisible. It was made very clear that morning that the military was not going to be charged by the county for its usage of a civilian airport.

In all probability, this plan is part of what is known as Jade Helm 15 — a military exercise conducted from July 15 to Sept. 15. Accordingly, the commander of the U.S. Army Special Operations Command (USASOC) sought a written invitation and approval from local officials to conduct Realistic Military Training (RMT) within their jurisdictions for joint military exercises. Supposedly, the military has to

practice in the same kind of terrain where its Middle Eastern enemies are located. If that is so, then why does Jade Helm declare some pockets of the United States as being “hostile?”

The Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 forbids American troops to be actively engaged on American soil and against American citizens. I wish the Board of Supervisors had consulted the Constitution and county residents, and lastly, they should’ve charged a ridiculous sum of money for this “practice” session! Loree Masonis, Ontario

voter to cast a ballot they believe supports the best interests of the United States. Instead, women are expected to cast ballots in the interests of women and their personal hobby horse. Women are expected to vote for a woman because the candidate is a woman, because the candidate is a Democrat or because the candidate supports abortion or other issues that women hold dear. I posit that women are every bit as capable of assimilating the issues that are important to the future of our nation as men are. It is demeaning to suggest otherwise and the very idea of this question

is rooted in the idea that women do not have this capability.

If I were a woman, I would be insulted by the very suggestion that I need to be told how to vote as a woman rather than as a voter. While the world is descending into chaos, an entire faction of voters are doing their part to support this same chaos in America by abusing the right to vote responsibly, choosing instead to vote in support of personal interests.

Words to Think About: Rancho La Brea A

By G. W. Abersold Ph.D.

pproximately 75 miles west of the Inland Empire is one of the top visitor sights in Southern California. La Brea Tar Pits. That is sort of redundant since the “ brea ” in Spanish means tar. The best way to get there is to take Route 10 to LA, then continue on ten toward Santa Monica . Go north on off ramp La Brea to Wilshire Blvd. Turn left and the destination is a short distance on the right. Rancho La Brea has an illustrious

history. Obviously the original occupants of the area were Indians. The earliest fossils go back to about 40,000 years. Most of the over one million relics are believed to have lived between then and 9,000 years ago. Earliest recorded history comes from the Spanish/Mexican period. Gaspar de Portola made the first written report in 1769. The original owner of the area was Antonio Jose Pocha. It was a Mexican land grant of 4,400 acres and was named Rancho La Brea. It was given to him in 1828. Father Juan Crespa described the area as geysers spouting tar from the ground. The land was spouting molten tar from springs, surrounded by swamps. The area was christened Los Bolianes de Brea (the tar geysers). In 1850, following the USAMexican war, the Rancho claim was challenged. However, in 1870 the US Supreme Court granted their claim. Because of the financial drain on the family, a major part of La Brea was sold to John and Henry Hancock.

In the early 1870’s Major Henry Hancock assumed control of the area consisting of 4,000 plus acres. Today the area is still called Hancock Park . The original purpose was mining the tar and asphalt. Hundreds of tons were mined and sent to San Francisco for roads. Today the tar pits consist of approximately 23 acres. This park was donated to the County of Los Angeles by the Hancock family. The understanding was that a museum would be built on-site “to house and exhibit the fossils.” It is important to understand how the myriad of animals were trapped to become fossils. Obviously the tar and springs were always there. The black tar (asphalt) was covered with water. Animals would come to the various springs seeking to quench their thirst. Upon stepping into the water, they would sink into the tar and be trapped forever or until their fossils were excavated. An interesting feature that can be seen today is a large tank of tar with poles sticking out of it. Visi-

tors can try to pull the poles out of the tar. It can be done only with great effort. The closest image I can think of to the tar pits is quicksand. Both can best be described as “death traps.” The grounds can be divided into two parts. First, there are beautiful park-like areas. Tar pits, small lakes, large trees, beautiful walkways and scenic animals made of concrete. Guides (doscents) are available to describe what can be seen at various times. Second, there is the world famous George C. Page Museum of La Brea Discoveries. It was Page’s vision and philanthropy that made the beautiful edifice possible. The display of fossils and reconstructed animals is awesome. There is also a gift shop with hundreds of items for sale. The first Tuesday of each month the facility is free. Other days there is a small fee to enter. Over the years only one human remains has been found. The death of “La Brea Woman” took place about 9,000 years ago. Only

the skull and several skeletal items were found. She has been estimated as being about 4 feet 8 inches tall and approximately 18 years old when she died. The cause of death is not known, outside of her remains in one of the pits. Close to the skull were the remains of a dog and a hand grinding stone Where did these animals come from? It is believed they arrived in the Western Hemisphere about 2040,000 years ago, across the Bering land bridge, from Siberia. However, humans followed them and all scattered throughout Alaska , Canada , the US and Central and South America. In addition to the animals already mentioned, there is evidence of lions, horses, tigers, dogs, wolves and zebras. The work goes on. Volunteers are working most everyday and the evidence of fossils is ever increasing. A trip to La Brea Discoveries is worth every effort you make. Enjoy. Amen. Selah. So be it.

man year. Both Walter and Margaux are on academic and athletic scholarship at their respective schools. The siblings of Angel and Dr. Walter Jones III left some very impressive landmarks at 125 year-old Redlands High School. Along with establishing new records in a number of track and field events, they were both nominated for the National Gatorade Track and Field Athlete of the Year. They were the first brother and sister to be nominated for the Ken Hubbs Award, with Margaux winning the overall Hubbs Award as the greater San Bernardino 2015 Girl Athlete of the Year. According to Margaux Jones extensive bio, she was either the president or vice-president of the Academic Decathlon Team at RHS all four years. During that time she was a Academic Decathlon gold and bronze medalist and a state finalist. Her 4.47 GPA ranked 15 out of 558 graduating seniors which obviously qualified her for the California Scholarship

Federation all four years. Margaux's other achievements are: Citrus Belt League record holder in the 100 meter (11.82), 200 meter (24.32) and long jump at over 20 feet. In addition to her brother's track standards were his performances for the Redlands football team where he was an all-league receiver. Although the long jump is his featured event with a personal best of 24'11" Walter Jones has recorded top-notch times in the 100M (10.66) and 200M (21.38). He can also run the 4x400 and 4x100 relays at the collegiate level. Angel Jones said her son was recruited by Oregon State to play football and track but he will no longer play college football. Angel Jones said she was on the cross country and track teams at Sweetwater HS in San Diego County where she says she ran recreationally. "I was no where near the level they are," said Angel Jones. According to the UC Berkeley website, her husband Dr. Walter Jones III was

more than recreational. He is 10th all-time on the school's charts with a time of 46.45 in the 400M set in 1986. He was a member of Cal's 1986 4th nationally ranked 4x400 relay team whose time of 39.94 is 8th best ever at Cal.

Angel Jones first noticed her daughter was going to be a special athlete when she was 9, competing in the Junior Olympics. "I am very proud of my children and am happy they are reaching their goals and dreams," she said.

ngel Jones says she has quite a lot to be proud of and it's hard to disagree. Both of her children were decorated athletes from Redlands High School who are now competing in track and field at two different PAC-12 colleges. Her son Walter Jones IV earned AllAmerican honors last year at Cal by finishing seventh in the nation in the long jump at the NCAA finals. Angel's daughter, Margaux was a two-time high school AllAmerican at Redlands after winning the state long jump title and setting a new CIF record in that event as well. Angel Jones said her daughter is currently taking a heavy class load in biomedical science at USC where she is preparing for her first season on the track and field team. Walter is a sophomore sociology major at Cal after transferring from Oregon State where he red-shirted his fresh-

early 1,000 job seekers connected with 75 employers from industries that included logistics, manufacturing, healthcare, technology, construction and retail during the 6th Annual West Valley Regional Job Fair hosted by the San Bernardino County Workforce Investment Board on Thursday, Sept. 10. “I came well prepared, dressed for success and armed with copies of my resume,” said Rancho Cucamonga resident Andrea Mitchum. “I met with representatives from a major logistics company and I’m leaving here today feeling confident about an upcoming interview I scheduled today.” Events such as this job fair are successful in connecting job seekers with employers, which is in line with San Bernardino’s Countywide Vision of prosperity through a diverse and skilled workforce. “It is vital that we offer opportunities such as these to provide County residents the ability to secure gainful employment that enables our economy to flourish,” said San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors Chairman James Ramos. “We strive to continually and diligently offer resources, services and events to attain that countywide prosperity we are so determined to achieve.” Though the turnout of job seekers was considerable, according to Miguel McQueen, Deputy Director, Department of Workforce Development, there were fewer job seekers who attended the event compared to that of last year, while the number of employers increased. “We believe this is due to the improved economy and a lower unemployment rate,” McQueen explained.

he state Senate approved a legislative bill authored by California Senator Connie Leyva (D-Chino) which addresses lead contamination in drinking water. It now awaits final authorization by Gov. Jerry Brown. The Sept. 10 vote on Senate Bill 334--known as the Safe Drinking Water in Schools Act--will require school districts across the state to provide unleaded clean, safe drinking water to students, faculty, and staff; it will also obligate districts to identify which campuses are prone to lead exposure. In addition, school districts must conduct surveys to determine the extent and distribution of lead exposure from potential sources, such as paint, soil in play areas at school sites, and tap water, as identified by the State Department of Public Health. “Students spend many hours on school campuses each school day, so it is vitally important that the drinking water coming from school water fountains is clean and safe,” Leyva said in a statement. “The long overdue legal protection codified by SB 334 will not only guarantee that all people on school campuses have access to clean drinking water, but also improve student nutrition and health.” A case study presented by engineers Simoni Triantafyllidou and Marc Edwards of Virginia Tech University in 2009 demonstrates that lead contamination issues at school sites in Baltimore, Philadelphia, Seattle, Washington D.C., and Los Angeles were identified by parents, students, and investigative reporters---not by school personnel and administration. Furthermore, the study identified intricate plumbing systems (most of which are very old), such as lead pipe, galvanized iron pipe, solder-joints, valves, and faucets as key contributors to lead contamination. Triantafyllidou and Edwards cited an investigative story produced by NBC4 Southern California that has shed light on the issue of lead contamination in the drinking water at Los Angeles City Unified Schools. Tests conducted by the network’s investigative team in 2008 demonstrated that drinking fountains at the schools found amounts of lead up to 400 times the level deemed safe by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). According to the latest information obtained by NBC4, undercover video and internal documents show the issue is ongoing. The EPA, advises that expo-

sure to lead and other contaminants is a significant health concern for young children, as they are more susceptible to their harmful effects. Leyva believes parents in the Inland Empire and across the state

have the right to know the drinking water their children drink out of the faucets during lunch or at recess is not tainted with dangerous lead. She said she intends on meeting with superintendents in her district

to formulate strategies to provide clean, safe water, as well as hold workshops and seminars to inform residents about the dangers of lead poisoning. “This is the beginning for the of-

fice and myself,” Leyva said. “I can assure that we will be working on this issue in the upcoming years in hopes of fixing this problem. “This is about the health of our kids.”

Obituary - Claude “Glenn” Wilson “Alumni Professor

lenn Wilson, born to William Claud and Lata May Wilson on August 13, 1922, died at the age of 93 at his home on Sunday, September 20, 2015 at 1:55 am. Raised in Ardmore, OK, he graduated from Ardmore High School in 1940 and earned an A.S. Degree from Murray State College in Tishomingo, OK as WW2 ramped up in 1942. He transferred to the University of Oklahoma but soon volunteered for the Artillery. Glenn was a “90-day wonder” as he had terrific math skills and chemistry knowledge and soon was sailing across the Atlantic in preparation for D Day as a 2nd LT in Gen. Patton's 3rd Army, 87th Infantry, 334th Field Artillery, Battery C. His LST experienced rough seas crossing the English Channel and had to turn back to repair damage before engaging in heavy battle at St Lo,

France before pushing north into the Battle of the Bulge. Glenn typically spent two weeks on the front lines in field observation alternating commanding the guns for Battery C and earned a Bronze Star for his exceptional commitment during battle. Glenn was promoted to Captain as battery commander by the end of the war and returned to the University of Oklahoma to complete a degree in Civil Engineering. Glenn earned a bachelor's in civil engineering, obtained professional engineer and surveyor's licenses in the states of OK, TX, NM, AZ and CA and later earned a masters in Public Administration from the Univ of So Cal. Battle worn, Glenn chose to love others and sought peace, joy and understanding. He was guided by the love of God and a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Glenn married his true love, Mary Ann (McLeod) Wilson, in 1948, having been married 58 years before her passing in 2007. They moved to Riverside, CA in 1960 after living 11 years in Ardmore, OK and Ft Worth, TX. Glenn was the City Engineer, Public Works Director and later, City Manager for the City of Colton, CA. He served as Public Works Director and City Engineer for the City of San Bernardino before starting up GTS Associates, Inc., in 1983, an engineering services company, with his sons as part of the engineering staff, wife as treasurer and daughter as office manager. Glenn was a devoted family

man and is survived by his four children: Timothy Wilson and wife, Robin, of Hemet, CA; Claudia Burr and husband, John, of Sun City West, AZ; Scott Wilson and wife, Susan, of Tustin, CA; and Salli Wilson and husband, Todd, of Redlands, CA. Glenn was delighted to be grandfather of twelve grandchildren: Laura Wilson and Ashley Thompson of Hemet, CA; Lisa Gregg of Brooklyn, NY; Lynn Thompson of Oviedo, FL; Katherine Vosahlo of Kennewick, WA; Keith, Katherine, Karley and Kenton Wilson of Tustin, CA; and Glenni and Jamie Rankin and Dale Wilson of Redlands, CA. He also has four greatgrandchildren: Devin Burr and Addison Hubbard of Kennewick, WA and Kylie and Liam Thompson of Hemet, CA. He was proud of his Methodist heritage as grandson and great grandson of Methodist preachers and had the scripture on his desk of John 13:35, “By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” He loved, laughed and lived. He served God, his community, and his family with grace and honor. Services will be held at Redlands First United Methodist Church on Saturday, October 10, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. with reception to follow. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in his honor to Redlands First United Methodist Church, 1 Olive Street, Redlands, CA 92373 or the Boy Scouts of America, 1230 Indiana Street, Redlands, CA 92374.

You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916939-0772 for information regarding the trustee's sale or visit this Internet Web site www.nationwideposting.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case 20120187401309.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as

REV’s Smudge Pot reign continues with rout of Redlands R

By Richard Dawson

edlands East Valley’s high powered offense appears to be in midseason form and Citrus Belt League rival Redlands was the latest victim in its path. Junior quarterback Armando Herrera led REV (4-1, 2-0 CBL) to scores on each of its first five possessions in route to a 52-14 thumping of Redlands in the annual Smudge Pot game at Redlands High School on October 2. This marked the third straight year that Wildcats have won the Smudge Pot, and the eighth time in the past nine seasons. Coming off a 50-0 win over Carter in the CBL opener last week, the Wildcats picked up where they left off with an 80-yard drive on their first possession that was capped off by a 3-yard touchdown by Joey Harmon. Harmon finished with 197 yards and two scores in the game. Redlands (3-2, 1-1) responded on the ensuing possession with a drive deep into REV territory but turned the ball over on downs after linebacker Mateo Biscotti picked up a sack. Herrera took the game over after that, scoring on a 1-yard run before then tossing touchdown passes to Drew Douglass and Jonathan Clark on each of the next three drives for the Wildcats. Herrera accounted for 320 yards passing and five scores in the game. The Terriers lone score of the first half was aided by pass interference and roughing the passer penalties that set up a touchdown pass from quarterback Joey Burrola to Austin Williams. The duo also hooked up for the team’s second touchdown in the second half. A 30-yard field goal by John Hilfer sent REV into halftime up 317. CBL action continues on October 9 as REV gets a home game against Miller next week while Redlands travels to Eisenhower.

By Yazmin Alvarez

message of gratitude was spread over three days as Angels’ Closet Charities hosted its fifth-annual Fundraiser Tea at Martha Green’s The Eating Room in Redlands. The annual event is among the nonprofit’s signature fundraisers, with proceeds benefiting middle and high school students in need, and paying for costs of school clothing, clothing for job interviews as well as items such as caps and gowns and other graduation essentials for seniors. Held Sept. 29, 30 and Oct. 1, the sold-out event with guest speaker Neal Waner, president of Redlands Unified School District Board, brought guests to gather in community in support of the organization he calls, “a great cause.” “Angels’ Closet gives encouragement,” he said. “The kids that walk into the closet take pride in their new clothes they receive. That bit of confidence makes all the difference.” Pat Williams founded the nonprofit in 2008 to help less fortunate students in the area find clothes to fill or even start a closet of their own. It’s situated on Redlands East Valley High School campus where three clothes-and-accessories-packed rooms serve as private boutiques for students needing assistance. The rooms are filled with everything from

donated gently-used clothes to prom dresses and suits. Waner, a true supporter of the closet, even donates his old suits so young men can head to interviews, he said. Referrals to the closet are made by high school and middle school counselors, and include students from Redlands and surrounding areas. Now, just a few years later, Williams’ has found that the organization has not only helped fill thousands of teen’s closets but also their hearts. “There are times that students walk in wearing the only clothes

they own,” Williams said of the students who have been supported through Angels’ Closet. “But they never take home more than they need,” she said, adding that even the smallest item like toiletries or lotions makes for the biggest smiles from students. Thank you notes displayed at the fundraiser from students expressing gratitude for the help received through the nonprofit explains it best: “Mrs. Williams, I would like to thank you for all that you have done for me. It may not seem like a lot but it really is and I ap-

preciate it…” Before closing out the tea, Williams left guests with one final message — “Every single person here is helping put smiles on the faces of students by supporting Angels’ Closet. Everything you’re doing today, just by being here is helping reach the goal to make a difference in these kids’ lives.” To learn more about Angels’ Closet Charities, visit, www.angels-closet.org
