For more than four decades, Linda Hafizi has been a dedicated champion of the Santa Clarita Valley, helping local nonprofits create a lasting impact.
As the owner of a publishing company behind two successful Santa Clarita magazines, Linda and her family have used their influence to spotlight the people, organizations, and causes that enrich our region. Their dedication reaches well beyond the pages of their publications. Through decades of hosting, sponsoring, and volunteering at charitable events, the Hafizi family has helped nonprofits raise millions of dollars to benefit individuals and families throughout the community.
Linda fondly reflects on the memorable Sunset by the Lake fundraiser, held in her own backyard. Surrounded by 250 community members united in their commitment to helping local children and families thrive, the event raised an impressive $90,000 for Child & Family Center.
