Two of Seven New Members to Join Arcadia Chamber of Commerce in May
By Phil Space
Seven new members joined the Arcadia Chamber of Commerce in May and two of them, Yoobi and Mavin Learning Center, were personally introduced to the Ambassadors recently by Personal Ambassador Ivan Lai of Cruise Planners.
The members were introduced June 2, 2015, following the regular monthly meeting of the volunteer Ambassadors led by Chairman Rich Jones of the San Marino Tribune.
Camille Wallace and Monserrat Cruz, representing new member Yoobi, accepted the new member plaque. Yoobi, pronounced “you-be,” means “one for you, one for me.” Yoobi launched in June 2014 as an awesome new school supply company that engages kids through bright colors, cool designs, and most importantly, cause. Yoobi supplies are available at Target stores and at yoobi.com.
For every Yoobi item you purchase, a Yoobi item is donated to a classroom in need, right here in the U.S. More than 500,000 supplies were donated to kids in need in the company’s first year in business. The new Yoobi store will donate supplies to schools within a ten-mile radius of the new Arcadia store at the Westfield Santa Anita mall right next to the Disney Store. It will be the first branded retail outlet for Yoobi when it has its Grand Opening on June 20.
Aaron Rose is the founder of Mavin Learning Center located at 909 S. Santa Anita Avenue #A in Arcadia (just north of Duarte Road at the corner of Campus Road). Mavin offers one-on-one personalized instruction and tutoring. In addition, they are actively engaged in college counseling with students. They help a student figure out what classes to take and activities in which to be involved so that the student can be more competitive when it comes to getting into college. They help students assess what schools fit their needs financially and academically.
Also at the monthly meeting, Lani Lee, the owner of Beauty Culture Spa in Arcadia, was voted in to become the newest Ambassador. Lani is a new member of the Chamber who attends Chamber events and is always friendly. Visit her wonderful spa located at 715 S. First Avenue in Arcadia.
