Annual Fundraiser



Your energy and contributions have made 2018 a phenomenal year for AHS! This year we:

• Put oral histories online! Go to our website and listen.

• Upgraded computer hardware that allows us to digitize thousands of documents.

• Installed a new museum exhibit about Theatre Americana.

• Indexed our map collection.

• Put Paul Ayers' lecture, "The Lost Trails of the Altadena Foothills" on YouTube. Watch!

• Launched our Facebook Page.  Please like it! (And follow us on Instagram.)

So thank you for your donations this year.

But here we are shamelessly begging for more! You can help continue preserving Altadena history with a tax-deductible end-of-year donation. 

Please be generous so we can get started on new tasks like:

• Digitizing and posting online our complete bound newspaper collection: The Altadena Press (1929-1944), The Altadenan (1944-1977) and others.

• Converting our website! Our site is old and the software used to create it is no longer available. It’s difficult to use, update and access.

• Digitizing thousands of fading slides, many from rare collections.

As an AHS supporter, you're part of an amazing group of people. Understanding the past is key to planning Altadena’s future. So thanks so much.

Please give generously again to support our goals for 2019. Donate online through our safe and secure Square Store.
