What we do
Our positive approach, our upbeat outlook, and our commitment to creating a more optimistic future for kids is what differentiates Optimist Clubs from any other volunteer opportunity.
Communities in the United States, Canada, the nations of the Caribbean and other countries throughout the world have been touched by the powerful, positive force of Optimist Club Members.
From sponsoring youth athletic leagues to weatherizing the homes of the elderly to conducting oratorical contests for young people—Optimist Clubs are responding to the special needs of our local communities.
Although we come from all walks of life, Optimist Club Members share one common trait. We know that we can make a difference in the lives of others.
Spreading Optimism
Bringing Out the Best in Kids
The Club runs many programs throughout the year. GEO sponsors Boy Scout Troop 683, and we actively support the Gardena Valley JCI, the Gardena Valley Sansei League, A Sense of Home, and the Optimist Youth Homes.
Optimism
The Evening Optimist Club of Gardena (popularly known as the Gardena Evening Optimist Club or GEO) is in its 60th year of serving communities in the South Bay. We were originally sponsored by the Japanese American Optimist Club of Los Angeles (JAO) and chartered in February of 1964.
