You've helped us reach our campaign goal!

We are checking in with great news about our April Archives Project campaign. Because of your generosity we have raised $7,661 and surpassed our $5,000 goal, all before the end of the month!

Many thanks to:

Because of your helping hand, we have also now unlocked an anonymous donation match of $5,000 to apply to our next Archives Project initiative.

There is still time help us make an even more successful April and kick-off our work to digitize more than 1,000 slide images documenting historic San Francisco architecture in the 1950s and 1960s.

Donate now!
Two slide images side by side, of a four-story beige Victorian home and conical turret with black and beige car parked in front.
Stereoview example: unidentified location in San Francisco. Providing access to slides like these will help us solve location mysteries and add details to unique views of San Francisco.
