Brentwood Green President Honored by Los Angeles Councilmember Mike Bonin
With a warm smile, a big heart and tireless dedication to her community, Jackie Raymond is a godmother of sorts to Brentwood. She has left her mark on countless projects and organizations serving Brentwood neighborhoods.
Jackie has served the community of Brentwood as the president of the South Brentwood Homeowners Association and the Brentwood Community Federation, as a member of the Brentwood Community Council from 1998-2011, but most importantly, as the founder and perennial president of the Brentwood Green, a group that has been dedicated to improving the Brentwood Science Magnet School.
The Brentwood Green is a school and community park created by Brentwood’s very own residents. With Jackie’s leadership, Brentwood Green has provided a community space for all those around it. While the park is only used by students during the day, it is open to the entire community after school and on weekends and holidays. Jackie continues to serve as a fantastic resource for all information in and around the Brentwood area, ensuring her countless community contacts are kept updated on all sorts of neighborhood news.
“I love Brentwood because the people seem to all care about one another and everyone is anxious to do things for Brentwood and each other,” said Jackie. “I just love the low key attitude that everyone carries around here.”
