FFS the Port of Long Beach VP - Bonnie Lowenthal -

 

Since the late 1980s, Ms. Lowenthal has taken an active role in affordable housing. Appointed as Vice Chair of the Mayor’s Task Force on Homelessness in 1987, she has looked for mechanisms to house people and prevent homelessness. As a City Councilmember and the Chairperson of the city’s Housing and Neighborhoods Committee, she authored the Housing Trust Fund for the City of Long Beach and brought to Long Beach the first city-administered overnight shelter for single men and women. Most recently, Ms. Lowenthal chaired the Mayor’s Task Force on Affordable Housing for the city and provided recommendations to the Long Beach City Council.

 

Beginning in 1989, as Director of Planning for the United Cambodian Community, she also served as the Arts Manager representing a group of Cambodian musicians and began a Cambodian Children’s Orchestra. In 1991, Ms. Lowenthal traveled to Cambodia with a national Red Cross group to investigate the proliferation of landmines following wars in the country. She also helped initiate a sister-city relationship between Long Beach and Phnom Penh and was an official observer during Cambodia’s first municipal elections in more than 40 years. Ms. Lowenthal has also served as Clinical Director for the Cambodian Association of America and as a participant on the Cambodiatown Advisory Board.

 

Ms. Lowenthal currently serves her community on the St. Mary Medical Center Governing Board, the U.S. Vets Advisory Board, the Children Today Board of Directors, the Linc Housing Board of Directors and the Jewish Family and Children’s Service Board of Directors.

I just found this…Having served as a mental health consultant for the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) HeadStart, and the Centro de la Raza, Ms. Lowenthal is also acutely aware of the needs of the Latino community in Long Beach. Living in Mexico and teaching at universities there instilled in her a love for Latin culture. In Long Beach, she worked closely with community activists and leaders to establish the first college scholarship fund for students by the Long Beach City Latino Managers and Professional Organization in honor of Manny Perez. She also instituted the City’s recognition luncheon dedicated to Cesar Chavez.

 

MEXICO too!
