When a teenage student from South Pasadena was killed in a tragic automobile accident in 2002, his parents joined with his employer in honoring him by establishing the Sina Massoumi Memorial Scholarship fund. Awarded each year to a South Pasadena High School student who exemplifies Sina’s love of music and sports, the scholarship keeps alive the values and memory of an outstanding young scholar, athlete, and musician.
THE POWER OF ENDOWMENT
Endowments are the cornerstone of PCF’s mission to build hometown legacies. The corpus of each endowed fund is invested with PCF’s portfolio for long-term growth. Each year, the endowments generate the funds that support PCF’s local grantmaking, which enriches the arts community, protects our environment, provides health care and critical social services, and bolsters public education in Pasadena. Endowments are permanent legacies for our community; these funds will continue to grow and provide philanthropic support forever. Learn more about creating an endowment at PCF.
