Dealing With the Needs of Children
Apr 25, 2018
Millicent Hill, a.k.a. Mama Hill, a retired teacher with LAUSD, has, over her 45-year career as an award-winning educator, poet, and activist, changed the lives of thousands of youngsters through her innovative teaching style. Today she and her small staff cover an array of issues within the core curricula-from anger management to teen pregnancy-as most of her youngsters are living under the cloud of violence, grief, abandonment or abuse, which all too often impedes their ability to learn. Mama Hill's Help is known by everyone in the community as a "safe haven". Many former gang members often stop by Mama Hill's to speak to the children about the dangers of gangs and drugs. Mama Hill's Help provides a safe and drug free place where every week neighborhood kids come to get help in tutoring, job skills training, violence and molestation prevention, gang intervention and prevention, anger management courses, conflict resolution, music appreciation, life skills, pregnancy prevention and abstinence, school exit exams, and college preparation. Throughout its years of operation, Mama Hill's Help has achieved an amazing rate of success. Mama Hill's youth are thriving, as each receives a healthy dose of love and encouragement along with the tutoring, mentoring and counseling services the program provides. 75% of all graduates from Mama Hill's Help are gainfully employed. 80% of Mama Hill's Help students read above grade level 90% of Mama Hill's Help students have increased their social skills. 95% of the youth who have graduated from Mama Hill's Help, also graduated from high school. Many are now pursuing degrees at colleges across the nation. 100% of Mama Hill's Help students have been promoted to the next grade. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Abdur Rahman has worked with youth for over 20 years in the Los Angeles area. He is currently serving as the Instructor for MHH Tuesday classes. He is also COO of Mama Hill’s Help, Inc.

The Year in Review
Jun 20, 2018
Redondo Beach Rotary Club President Walter Campbell will review the club's activities and accomplishments during the past year under his leadership.
Walter was born in Wichita, Kansas, and grew up in Arizona and Texas. His father played professional football (Chicago, now Arizona Cardinals) and worked in sales. During WW II, his mother at age 19 worked as an accounting manager at Boeing, managing some 40 female payroll clerks, all older than herself, some of which were the mothers of her high school girlfriends. She was so glad the Americans won the war so she could leave Boeing and concentrate on raising 3 sons, even though only one of which, Walter, was especially well-behaved. She later worked as a primary school office manager in Tulsa.
After Permian HIgh School in Odessa, Texas, the school made infamous via book, movie and TV show as “Friday Night Lights”, and where he played football and basketball, Walter went east to Harvard College, studied psychology, sociology and economics, threw the javelin for Varsity Track, and graduated (AB ‘67). He studied sociology in England on a Rotary scholarship and then worked for Merrill Lynch in NYC. He then went to Harvard Business School, studied finance and graduated (MBA ‘71). Walter worked as a management consultant at Cambridge Research Institute and then as an independent consultant in Boston focussing on strategy and finance. He later joined Isys Corporation, a small software and financial information company, as co-founder and Managing Director. Isys was sold to Lotus Corp which was later bought by IBM. After that, he partly owned and managed several small businesses, the only successful one being City Gardens, Inc., a horticulture company which was sold to Rentokil, a large UK building maintenance company. He then joined with Forest Properties, Inc., in Cambridge, and has spent the last 20 years or so investing in real estate, mainly in New England and New York. He moved to California in 2006, motivated by the arrival of grandson Luke, a future Rotarian who was recently drafted to help with the backpacks project. Along the way, Walter married and had three children (Jason, entrepreneur, martial arts teacher and musician; Kirsten, financial services executive; and Robin, Broadway dancer, actor and singer). He has 8 grandchildren, Luke, Connor & Sadie in Manhattan Beach, Jake in Wichita and Mary in Phoenix, and William, Henry & Clara in NYC. His current interests include grandchildren, Rotary, Shakespeare, The Wall Street Journal, The Financial Times, The Economist, investing, going to the gym, personal financial planning, struggling with low interest rates, Rotary and hoping for the best. |
