AMERICAN RED CROSS
As part of our Social Responsibility Program we are proud to announce our new partnership and support for the The American Red Cross.The Red Cross, born of a desire to bring assistance without discrimination to the wounded on the battlefield, endeavors—in its international and national capacity—to prevent and alleviate human suffering wherever it may be found. Its purpose is to protect life and health and to ensure respect for the human being. It promotes mutual understanding, friendship, cooperation and lasting peace amongst all peoples.
In order to continue to enjoy the confidence of all, the Red Cross may not take sides in hostilities or engage at any time in controversies of a political, racial, religious or ideological nature. The Red Cross is independent. The national societies, while auxiliaries in the humanitarian services of their governments and subject to the laws of their respective countries, must always maintain their autonomy so that they may be able at all times to act in accordance with Red Cross principles.The Red Cross is a voluntary relief movement not prompted in any manner by desire for gain. There can be only one Red Cross society in any one country. It must be open to all. It must carry on its humanitarian work throughout its territory.The Red Cross is a worldwide institution in which all societies have equal status and share equal responsibilities and duties in helping each other.

THE LA JOLLA WOMAN'S CLUB
At the turn of the 19th century, La Jolla was a simple village sparsely populated by small cottages. Without the right to vote and to have legal custody of their children, women faced a number of issues. In 1894 a small group of women in La Jolla met to talk about current affairs and literature. This group, initially known as the Woman’s Literacy Club of La Jolla, evolved into a large and prominent group. Speakers such as Helen Keller and Lucy Stone were invited to speak on a variety of topics including women’s suffrage and the lack of female representation in the American political system. In 1901, Ellen Browning Scripps became president of the club and the name was changed to La Jolla Woman’s Club.
The Ambassadorial Roundtable is a proud co-sponsor of the 110th Anniversary Gala of the La Jolla Woman's Club. Dr. Ina von Ber, President & CEO, will serve as chair of the event. Please click here to purchase tickets for the event.
