The Socieda De Hispana De Decoto was founded on September 24, 1932. This club was formed to raise money during the Depression to help Spanish families pay funeral expenses. Charter members were: Antonio Ramos, Juan Roderigues, Roman Cortez, Alcadio Santiago, Lawrence Delgado, Basilio Pacheco, Emilio Paniagua, Esteban Paniagua, Philip Hernandez, Jose Arichas and Genaro Arenas.
By 1995, all members were financially able to pay for their funeral expenses, so the group decided to dissolve the club. The group voted to give some of the money to members, attorney fees and income taxes. After everything was taken care of, the group decided to donate half of the remaining money to the Days Club of San Leandro and the other half to the organization, Prevent Blindness of Northern California.
