keirjonesOn Thursday, April 25, the Long Beach Post hosted an event to honor young people from around the city who are doing great things to better their community and beyond. Out of hundreds of nominations from our readers, judges chose 40 winners who run the gamut from educators to artists to business owners to community activists, all of whom represent just a selection of those who are today contributing to the betterment of Long Beach.

Go to many events and you’ll see Keir Jones’ name somewhere—on a poster, in a pamphlet, projected on a screen. And it’s not necessarily because he is locally famous but rather, outside of his State Farm Insurance business, he endlessly provides his time, money and professionalism to countless events and causes throughout Long Beach. Whether it is his annual Better Balance Long Beach event that allows 500 children access to a one-day Christmas store or hosting a Celebrate My Drive fundraiser that allows The Center to provide educational grants, Keir is the definition of what it means to give back.
