We are so proud
Renee Simon is one of us,
a Life member of NCJW!!
Renee received our Hannah G. Solomon Award in 2009 because of her many efforts on behalf of women, children, and families in Long Beach, and she has always been our expert on the pro’s and con’s of ballot measures. Our new president Lisa Raufman and the League of Women Voters’ Lisa Andria spearheaded this recent effort to honor Renee’s many achievements by raising the funds for a stunning plaque and getting the city to approve the site of the plaque at the El Dorado Public Library.
As Rich Archbold said in his recent Press-Telegram article, El Dorado Regional Park “might never have happened without the vision, determination and courage of Renee Simon, who has become a living legend in the city.”
