The gift was the centerpiece of the monthly gathering, which drew 115 local leaders, nonprofit representatives, and city officials. The morning session opened with a performance by the Boys & Girls Club of Whittier choir before transitioning into updates from Chamber CEO Shannon Hammer, President Liz Apodaca, and Whittier Mayor Pro Tem Mary Ann Pacheco.
