The State Assembly District announced its award recipients for the Annual 30 Under 30 Award Ceremony, which recognizes the accomplishments of young adults 30 or younger who live or work in the 47th Assembly District. One of the awardees was Manny Sandoval, a 2015 SBVC Radio Broadcasting alumnus and current board member for the RTVF Advisory Board here on campus.

As an advocate for education and childhood cancer, he lends much of his time inspiring students to attend college and give back to the community after graduation. In 2019, Sandoval participated in the Black and Brown Conference, Communication Studies Symposium, and was professor for a day, at CSUSB.

Sandoval is a public relations associate for San Manuel Band of Mission Indians and a freelance writer for the Inland Empire Community News. Sandoval was recently honored for this prestigious award by CA State Assemblymember Eloise Reyes as one of the 30 Under 30.
