Solidarity and Support

As a community Pasadena has faced Covid19, and now the civil unrest roiling the nation, with commendable solidarity. However, permanently remedying the underlying causes of our societal divisions requires continued vigilance and sustained action on the part of everybody. One way to immediately make a positive impact is by patronizing local black-owned businesses and donating to organizations that are helping to improve the lives of Pasadena’s African-American residents.
