THANK YOU to all our members, volunteers, and supporters for your participation during the past year. 2019 was a banner year in many ways, and you made that possible.

Here are a few highlights from 2019: we saw the final demise of the 710 Freeway – one of Pasadena Heritage’s first causes. We protested state legislation that will increase development and impact our neighborhoods and saw the passage of an Historic Preservation Tax Credit for California plus a local moratorium on demolition. Our Craftsman Weekend drew hundreds of visitors for tours, workshops, and the inaugural Dr. Robert Winter Memorial lecture. To attract a broader audience we expanded one of our signature tours and created the Old Pasadena Historic Pub Crawl, which was offered monthly. Our summer fundraiser – 9,136 Days – celebrated 25 years of our Executive Director’s leadership and 40 years of service to the organization. The outpouring of support and funds raised exceeded our expectations and were especially heart-warming.

It is only with your support that Pasadena Heritage today is a voice to be reckoned with. To accomplish the above achievements, as well as the smaller victories that happen every week, depends on our members and donors. Your end-of-year contribution will directly support these efforts. We can’t do all this without you and your generosity.

Please consider an extra gift to Pasadena Heritage as the year draws to a close. With so much on our plates, we need your donations and your encouragement as we begin our next banner year in 2020!

Warmest wishes for Happy Holidays from the Board and Staff!
