Letter From the President

Welcome to the Propeller Club of LA/LB!

As we embark on another year of growth and opportunity, I am both honored and excited to serve as your President of the Propeller Club of LA/LB. Our mission is to promote the vital role of global commerce and trade, support the International Seafarers Center, and nurture future industry leaders by enabling local high school seniors to pursue higher education through our Scholarship Program.

This year, our focus will be on strengthening our membership base and fostering new partnerships with industry and corporate sponsors. We have an exciting lineup of monthly events planned for you in 2025! We welcome past and present members and guests to join our webinars, luncheons and receptions, and our annual signature events -- the Propeller Club/ILWU Seafood Feast, Scholarship Harbor Cruise and Annual Holiday Reception. Our networking opportunities are designed to enhance understanding of the issues facing our industry and to build lasting relationships that benefit all members. Whether through educational programs, community outreach, opportunities for advocacy or our signature events, we aim to provide valuable opportunities for engagement and professional development.

I encourage each of you to get involved, sign up to become a member or sponsor, register for our events to share your ideas, and take full advantage of the resources and support that the Propeller Club offers. Your passion and commitment are what make this organization strong, and together, we can continue to be a powerful voice for the maritime, logistics and transportation industries.

I look forward to seeing many of you at our upcoming events, and I am confident that we will accomplish great things this year. Thank you for your continued dedication to our mission, and for your ongoing participation in and support of the Propeller Club.

Sincerely,

Cesar Sanchez

President, Propeller Club LA/LB
