Switzer Learning Center's 60th Anniversary Gala
Join us on Thursday, March 12, 2026, as Switzer Learning Center celebrates 60 years of transforming lives with an unforgettable evening at the Palos Verdes Golf Club. From 6:00-10:00 PM, guests will step into a sparkling celebration honoring six decades of resilience, community, and student success.
Expect elegant fare, lively company, and delightful surprises, along with spirited bidding on exclusive experiences that support Switzer's mission and help fuel our next chapter. This year's gala carries special meaning as we continue rebuilding after last year's campus incident-now 100 days behind us-and move forward with renewed strength and purpose.
Kick up your heels and join us as we toast to legacy, generosity, and a future filled with possibility for the students who need us most.
