kicked-off the 2007-2008 Community Campaign with an educational
Pacesetter Luncheon, which was held at Rodney’s Steak House at
Fess Parker's DoubleTree Resort. Lynda Nahra, President and
CEO of Community West Bank and United Way’s Community Campaign
Deputy Chair was the mistress of ceremonies. To honor her work, the
restaurant was decorated in a “bank” theme with fun decorations and "Nahra"
bucks spread throughout the tables.

United Way’s Community Campaign Chair, spoke about some of the current
success United Way has gained through volunteer hours and dollars to
continue helping the community through the Power of Partnership™.
