FUND PROFILE

Roger & Gloria Villalobos Mullendore Endowment for Hunger

The Roger and Gloria Villalobos Mullendore Endowment for Hunger supports Pasadena Community Foundation’s grantmaking to address food insecurity. Inspired by their personal experiences and community involvement, the Mullendores created this fund to help ensure individuals and families have consistent access to nutritious food.

OVERVIEW

About the Fund

The Roger and Gloria Villalobos Mullendore Endowment for Hunger is a PCF endowment fund will help organizations that provide food assistance to individuals and families facing food insecurity.

Roger was first introduced to the Foundation at a Local Heroes breakfast – he attended as a board representative for the Pasadena Conservatory of Music, a grant recipient that year. Roger shared his enthusiasm for the event with his wife, Gloria. She called the Foundation to learn more about our work. The Mullendores became annual Here for Good donors and supported PCF’s 60th anniversary gala. Gloria and Roger have taken care of parents and other elderly relatives, so Gloria enthusiastically agreed to serve on the Foundation’s Senior Grants Task Force. One of the areas of need that emerged for local older adults was food security. “I am proud of the work our Senior Grants Task Force did… (it was) a hard-working, serious, and thoughtful group, and the entire experience has been personally enriching for me.”
