The name “ALTRUSA” was coined from ALTR from altruism and USA for United States of America. It is intended to conceptualize “devotion to the interest of others”.
Since its organization in March 1954 and chartering in April 1955, the members and supporters of Altrusa have demonstrated this devotion and interest through their hands-on and financial support of our community:
City of Glendale
Glendale Community College
Glendale Unified School District
Glendale Association for the Retarded
Glendale Public Library
Glendale YWCA
Long-time Glendale resident and Altrusan, Donnalee Monninger will host the Summer Social at her home. The celebration will have a 50’s theme to commemorate the Club’s chartering in 1955. So, dig out those poodle skirts, bobby socks, and start practicing your hand jive! Guests are encouraged to bring a photo of themselves from the 1950’s or from their childhood, to be put on display as part of a guessing game.
Guests will enjoy a complete BBQ Rib dinner, beverages, and dessert. And, of course, there will be bingo and prizes!

Glendale Club does a lot for the community. Barbara Winsor, our president, posted a brief description on www.altrusaglendaleca.com of our activities for the first part of this year. WOW!
Thanks Barbara and Sandra.
