Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is scheduled to return to the Southland next week, where she will hold three events on Tuesday, her campaign announced Saturday.

The former first lady, New York senator and U.S. secretary of state will appear with Rep. Karen Bass for a discussion of foster care at the Community Coalition at 8101 S. Vermont Avenue in Los Angeles. That event is scheduled to begin at 10:45 a.m. Tuesday.

Next, Clinton will appear at a labor rally at International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 11, at 6023 Garfield Ave. in Commerce, at 12:45 p.m.

At 5:30 p.m., she is scheduled to participate in an “organizing event” in the Johnson Family Practice Center at UC Riverside, at 900 University Ave. That event will be open to the public.

Before Tuesday’s events, Clinton will hold two Los Angeles-area fundraisers on Monday.

Tickets for an early evening event at the home of Bryan Lourd and Bruce Bozzi are $2,700, according to an invitation obtained by City News Service. Individuals raising $10,000 will be co-hosts of the event and will have a photo taken with Clinton.

The maximum individual contribution under federal law for a candidate seeking his or her party’s presidential nomination is $2,700.

Lourd is the managing partner of the Creative Artists Agency talent agency. Bozzi is a co-owner of The Palm restaurants chain. The event is also hosted by Anna Wintour, editor-in-chief of the fashion magazine Vogue.

An evening fundraiser in Hancock Park will follow, with tickets priced at $1,000. Individuals raising $20,000 will have a photo taken with Clinton.

The Clinton campaign said details of additional events scheduled for Orange County, Salinas and San Jose on Wednesday and Thursday would be announced soon.

The trip will be the 68-year-old Clinton’s 12th to the Los Angeles area since declaring her candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination on April 12, 2015 and second this month.

Clinton held 26 fundraisers during her previous visits, including two during her most recent visit on May 5.

Clinton’s opponent for the Democratic nomination, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, was scheduled to speak at a rally in National City tonight. The Sanders rally will be held at Kimball Park with gates opening at 4 p.m. and the program beginning at 7:30 p.m., according to an official with his campaign.

Sanders was also scheduled to speak in Vista on Sunday afternoon at Rancho Buena Vista High School.

Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump is scheduled to hold a rally at the San Diego Convention Center on Friday afternoon.
