On February 26, Governor Schwarzenegger took first-in-the-nation action to encourage volunteerism in California and to improve coordination of volunteer efforts between the state’s departments and agencies. The Governor signed an executive order to establish the new position of secretary of service and volunteering.
Twelve Safe Corps members from Los Angeles, Santa Monica, and Ventura Chapters volunteered and attended the announcement. Safe Corps members greeted and directed guests to the auditorium for the governor's announcement. Additionally, Elda Kong was nominated by fellow Safe Corps members to represent the program and stand on stage during the governor's speech.
Members were privleged to meet Governor Schwarzenegger and Henry C. Lozano who is the Deputy Assistant to the President and Director of USA Freedom Corps (pictured below). Follow the link to learn more about this announcement: California Volunteers
