Baldwin Park committee presents $4,610 reimbursement to local soccer club
Summary
The committee presented a full reimbursement check of $4,610 to the Baldwin Park City Soccer Club under the Community Empowerment Grant after organizers submitted validated receipts.
At the March 11 meeting the Baldwin Park Stakeholders Oversight Committee formally presented a reimbursement check to the Baldwin Park City Soccer Club for $4,610 under the Community Empowerment Grant.
City staff said the awardee had completed purchases, submitted receipts and was receiving full reimbursement rather than an advance. Staff introduced Luis, identified as the soccer‑club representative, and asked the club and participating families to join for a presentation of the actual check.
Luis thanked city officials and volunteers during brief remarks, singling out Mayor Estrada and Shirley Quinones for help in securing the grant funds and noting the benefit to children: “Helping out the kids. Our goal is to put [the club] on the map, and we’re doing that. We have won four championships and [we’re] going for more,” he said.
No formal committee vote was required for the presentation. Staff and committee members indicated the city will post photos and social‑media coverage of the award to highlight community investment in youth sports.
