Double Your Impact for Long Beach’s Historic Lamp Posts!
Every historic neighborhood tells a story, and in ours, our classic lamp posts are a vital piece of that character. But time, weather, and budget constraints have taken a toll, leaving these neighborhood treasures at risk.
We couldn’t sit back and watch them fall into disrepair.
Our closest neighbors and local businesses have already stepped up to protect our street's historic lamp posts with a generous $5,000 matching pool. They’ve invested in our block—now they’re inviting you to match their commitment and double your impact during Long Beach Gives!
When it comes to preserving the character and safety of our neighborhood, the people who walk these sidewalks every day have real skin in the game. Thanks to their upfront support, we’ve already been able to triage our efforts and protect the most at-risk lamp posts along the block.
Where Your Support Goes Right Now
Because resources are limited, we’ve taken immediate action by triaging our efforts to protect the most at-risk lamp posts first. Your support through Long Beach Gives ensures we can complete these urgent restorations and secure the structures that need immediate intervention before they’re lost forever.
Looking Ahead
Protecting these lamp posts today is only phase one. As we stabilize the most vulnerable fixtures, our ultimate goal is to continue advocating with city leadership for a dedicated restoration plan once the city budget recovers—ensuring every remaining lamp post gets the care it deserves.
We can’t do this alone, and as first-time participants in Long Beach Gives, your support means the world to us.
