City Councilmembers in the Community Posted on November 16, 2022 (December 5, 2022) by Sean Davido Mayor Elpidia Saavedra and Councilmember Naila Duval showing support and representing Toppenish at recent events. I am truly honored to have been able to attend as Dr. Kathleen Ross received the Ted Robertson Community Service Award. She was recognized for her inspirational leadership and work in higher education being a co-founder of Heritage University. The most impactful for me was hearing from an alumna who fulfilled her dreams she never before thought were obtainable without the opportunity that was given to her at Heritage University. There are so many people throughout the years in the past, present and in the future that will have similar stories of their lives being changed for the better. I was proud to hear Toppenish shine in a positive light and on such a big stage in the Yakima Valley community. Thank you Sister Kathleen Ross and congratulations again! Naila Duval
