In its first large in-person event in more than a year because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the La Jolla-based St. Germaine Children’s Charity awarded grants to nine local nonprofits and seated a new board of officers, honoring the legacy of the organization’s founder as her granddaughter took the helm.
Barbara Christensen founded St. Germaine in 1984 with nine other women; the group currently has more than 250 members who further its mission to aid child abuse prevention in San Diego by supporting agencies that care for, shelter and treat victims of child abuse up to age 25.
More than 100 St. Germaine members and guests gathered at The Lot La Jolla on June 8 for the grants luncheon. Departing President Stefanie Bedingfield called the event a celebration of what “we were able to accomplish [in] a year most people thought we couldn’t.”
