Description
Charles B. Voorhis (1870-1961) was a successful executive of the Nash Motor Company who later founded the first boys' club of southern California, the All Nations Club. In 1928, he founded the Voorhis School for Boys in San Dimas, California, as an institution for boys who were orphans or from disrupted families. He endowed and served as chairman of the board of the school until 1938, when the property was donated to the State of California for educational purposes. The school then became the southern campus of California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo until 1966 when it became California State Polytechnic University, Pomona. This interview was conducted when Charles Voorhis was almost 90 years old.
