Executive Director
Robin Schlosser
Robin Schlosser came to the Morongo Basin in 1994 and has lived in the Twentynine Palms community ever since.
She and her family moved from the small community of Lompico, CA in the Santa Cruz mountains where she was a licensed general contractor and ran a business with her husband for many years. It was there that she began her first work with non-profits when she began volunteering with Valley Churches United, the Red Cross on the disaster assessment team and the Santa Cruz Aids Project performing home safety inspections in the rugged mountain communities in the aftermath of the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake.
In 2006, Robin moved to Victorville, CA where she worked for St. John of God Healthcare Services and was program director of Samaritan's Helping Hands, a social outreach program which operated the largest food pantry in the Victor Valley; provided utility, emergency shelter, and rental assistance to low income and homeless individuals and served 26,000 people annually.
In September 2011, the opportunity came to join Reach Out Morongo Basin as Executive Director and she moved back to the Twentynine Palms community she called home. She currently lives with her son and grandson and has her elderly father nearby.

Diane Magnani
Diane Magnani was born and raised in Oceanside, Ca. where she met her husband of 26 years. Her husband was in the United States Marine Corps and they were stationed at MCAGCC in 1998. They fell in love with the desert and the community and decided to stay and raise their two daughters who both graduated from Twentynine Palms High School. In their free time they enjoy going deep sea fishing, barbequing, and just relaxing.
Diane is very excited and proud of her position with Reach Out Morongo Basin and she looks forward to getting to know the seniors as they have many stories and wisdom to share. Diane takes her position as transportation coordinator seriously and wants to ensure that our senior and disabled neighbors get where they need to be safely.

Pamela Garcia
Pamela Garcia is a proud High Desert local and real estate agent with Coldwell Banker Roadrunner Realty, serving Yucca Valley, Joshua Tree, and the surrounding communities. Real estate is more than a career for her—it’s a way to help people build stability, opportunity, and a place to truly call home.
Beyond real estate, her heart is deeply rooted in community service, especially supporting seniors. Advocating for dignity, connection, and care for our older neighbors is something she is incredibly passionate about, and it’s a cause she actively supports through her work and volunteer efforts.
Family is everything to her. She is a proud mom of two amazing daughters who inspire her daily, and she feels blessed with a close bond with my sister, who has been a constant source of love, strength, and laughter throughout her life. They are her why—and the reason she leads with compassion in everything she does.
She believes in faith, perseverance, and showing up for people—whether that’s guiding a client through a home purchase, helping a senior feel supported, or simply being present in the community.
