Sunrider International Hosts “Tribute to First Responders Luncheon”

On Thursday, September 16, the Harbor City/Harbor Gateway Chamber of Commerce held the Tribute to the First Responders Luncheon at Sunrider International in Torrance, CA.

Some 150 policemen and women, firefighters, paramedics, and more from local police, fire, sheriff, and transportation departments, crises response teams, and other organizations attended in recognition of those who arrive first on the scene of emergencies.

Special guests included Los Angeles County Sheriff, Lee Baca; Steve Napolitano, from the Los Angeles County Supervisor’s office; and Chief Charlie Beck of the Los Angeles Police Department, among others.

As a sponsor and host of the event, Mrs. Chen attended the luncheon and honored guests with a gift bag from Sunrider. John Teng, North American Sales Manager, welcomed the guests on behalf of Sunrider and thanked the first responders for providing the local community with safety and peace of mind. Guests also toured the Chen Art Gallery, which houses the largest private collection of Chinese artifacts in Southern California.

It was a terrific way to recognize those who provide crucial, often life-saving, services in times of crisis. From all of us at Sunrider International, thanks to all the “first responders”—we greatly appreciate everything you do!
