The Greater Santa Clarita Valley Optimist Club is a chartered club of Optimist International. As such, we participate in a large number of international efforts to "Bring Out The Best In Children".

Optimist International's mission is to foster an optimistic way of life, through a network of Optimists, dedicated to the full development of their potential in order to provide ever-expanding service to youth, the community and the world.

The Greater Santa Clarita Valley Optimist Club also conducts a number of local activities, all aimed at maximizing the opportunity for children to enjoy happy and successful lives. These include: working hand in hand with the LASD helping to collect and distribute toys at College of the Canyons. Theyare heavily involved with the Newhall 4th of July Parade, and they do Kid Prints to help protect our young people.
