Stephen F. DeBrum

Community Service

From his high school days as president of the Hanford High Future Farmers of America, through his college years at California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo, to presently serving his second term on the Manteca City Council, most of Steve DeBrum’s life has been spent serving his community.

After arriving in Manteca in 1984, Steve immediately became involved in his church, the Manteca Sunrise Kiwanis Club and several other activities. He has been a tireless worker in these groups, having served the Kiwanis as president, later being named Super Distinguished Lieutenant Governor of the Cal-Nev-Ha District and named to its Hall of Fame.

Other past presidencies have included those of the Manteca Chamber of Commerce (2002-03) and the Boys and Girls Club of Manteca (2004-05). He is the current president of the Manteca Convention and Visitors Bureau. He is a past board member of the San Joaquin County United Way and the American Heart Association. At present, he serves on the boards of the Manteca Unified Student Trust and the Boys and Girls Club.

For the past 25 years, Steve has been employed as Northern Area Manager for the California Cooperative Creamery/Dairy Farmers of America. He and his wife, Veronica, are parents of two children, with four grandchildren. In his spare time, he enjoys being an auctioneer, traveling, hunting and being with his family.
