Community Leaders Association


The Violet and Gold Gala

On Saturday evening, November 8, the Community Leaders Association (CLA) hosted its 29th Annual Auction in the Gilbert Sports and Fitness Center at California Lutheran University. The Violet and Gold Gala provides the funding for important faculty grants and CLA student scholarships.

Last year, CLA awarded $65,000 to CLU science faculty to purchase microscopes for biology laboratories; a force plate and computer and software for CLU's Human Performance Lab; and several instruments to meet the growing demand in the chemistry and environmental science programs. CLA also funded $9,000 in scholarships and contributed $4,000 towards the scholarship endowment.
