Servicing the community since May 8, 1979

The Southfield-Lathrup Village Optimist Club has been serving the communities of
Southfield and Lathrup Village since May 8, 1979. Our motto is FRIEND OF YOUTH –
our vision is “BY PROVIDING HOPE AND POSITIVE VISION, OPTIMISTS BRING OUT THE
BEST IN YOUTH, COMMUNITIES AND OURSELVES”. The club promotes programs and
activities to recognize and encourage the youth in our community.



The Southfield-Lathrup Village Optimist Club is made up of local volunteers and
community leaders that support and implement several programs and projects
throughout the year. We are proud to have sponsored the Michigan District $2,500
Oratorical Contest Scholarship Winner in 2020!



Plans are underway for two great contests in 2023 where students will again have
a chance to first compete at the club level between January - March 2023.



Essay Contest Topic: “Who is an Everyday Hero that Brings Out the Optimism in
You?”



Oratorical Contest Topic: “Discovering the Optimism within Me”
