LEADERSHIP HERMOSA BEACH:
Leadership Hermosa Beach was founded in 2003
by former Mayor Art Yoon as a community-based organization that conducts an
annual leadership training program to local residents in and around Hermosa
Beach, California. The purpose of the program has been to foster a life-long
love for our city by educating existing and potential leaders within the City of
Hermosa Beach. For the past five years, Leadership Hermosa Beach has better
prepared local citizens to become more informed and prepared to seek out and
accept leadership roles in the community. For example, graduates of the
Leadership Hermosa Beach program have become members of City Council, City
Commissions and the local School Board, as well as nearly every service
organization in town.
In order to continue to develop and grow Leadership Hermosa
Beach, the current Board of Directors chose to formalize the program in 2008 by
incorporating Leadership Hermosa Beach as a California Non-Profit Public Benefit
Corporation and achieving its tax-exempt status as a 501(c)(3) public charity in
2009.
