PCF Awards $221,500 in Spring Grants

Pasadena Meals on Wheels is thriving in its new location in the First United Methodist Church on Colorado Boulevard. As they deliver meals, volunteers also bring friendly faces, stress relief, and moments of connection to disabled, aged, ill, or convalescing seniors.

Pasadena Community Foundation is pleased to announce the recipients of our 2019 Education, Senior Services, and Vista Nova grants. PCF will award $196,500 to 13 Pasadena nonprofit organizations and programs working to bolster the education of PUSD students, provide critical services to seniors, and enrich the lives of people living with vision loss and blindness.
