University of California in Los Angeles, where he was also awarded a
certificate in Privacy Research and Social Behavioral Research. He was one

health agency working to improve the health and living standards of people
of the Americas. Founded in December of 1902. It enjoys international
recognition as part of the United Nations system, serving as the Regional
Office for the Americas of the World Health Organization.

fund development. A native of California born in San Jose, he currently
lives in Los Angeles. In addition to his work with the Beverly Hills

Fellow
Members of the Beverly Hills Council, Navy league of the United
States:
As
of February 28, 2015, we will be making two changes within the
Officers of our corporation. The Board has approved the new Officers
to complete the current 2 year terms that began in April 2014.
I
am stepping aside from my position as President for family health
reasons. I asked Raphael Magana, a ten year member of Beverly Hills
Council, to complete my Presidential term, and he agreed to do so.
He assumed the Presidency at the February 28th Board meeting after
their approval. I am excited for the future of our group under
Raphael's leadership.
Executive
Vice President Seymour Ulansey is moving in March. He will be living
with his son in Hawaii, and leasing out his Malibu home. I was
approved by the Board to complete Sey's term.
In
this capacity, I will still be actively involved with the Board, and
available to assist Raphael as he requests.
The
Board is finalizing a rich calendar of events in 2015, including
ship rides, brunches with Navy, Coast Guard, and Marine Corps
speakers, NROTC and Sea Cadet awards, and presentation
ceremonies to our Navy, Coast Guard and Sea Cadet sponsored
commands.
We've
got family outings, fundraisers and corporate/military meet-ups in
the planning stages.
We
have two years of budget in our cash account, so we have this year
to grow our membership, begin new fundraisers,
learn what works and what doesn't, and get it right next year. And
Raphael Magana is tremendously qualified to lead us into our bright
future.
Raphael
loves the BHC, and is emotionally invested in this group. He has
been volunteering in BHC for ten years now. He is a member of the
Association of Fund Raising Professionals Greater Los Angeles
Chapter, California Advancement Researchers Association, Certified
Fund Raising Executive International, and Partnership for
Philanthropic Planning Los Angeles. Raphael brings wealth of
knowledge in community engagement, volunteer management, and fund
development. He plans on leading the organization into the future
and we are fortunate to have him.
I
thank you for the privilege of serving as President of this
distinguished group, serving our sea services, active military and
their families. It has been an honor to lead this excellent Board.
