Your Donations Make a Difference

Individual donors are a critical source of funding for our programs. Without such support we could not accomplish our mission: the preservation and interpretation of San Francisco’s extraordinary and unique history. This is important as an understanding of our traditions and our past is essential to building a successful future for our great city.

In these exciting times we continue to serve thousands of people through our monthly programs, Barbary Coast Trail tours, and other walking tours of San Francisco. Online media presentations through our YouTube channel and newly launched streaming of monthly programs have notably expanded the scope and impact of our work, making it easily accessible to diverse audiences, from local to national and beyond. Stay tuned for more great news as we begin to introduce important archived resources in the weeks to come. 

Additionally, we are launching new efforts to reach out to the city’s grammar school students with educational programs. Educational services and programs are at the heart of our mission, and we can provide valuable educational tools to help students learn about the city’s history.

We can only do these things with your generous support!

With Gratitude,
