On March 27th, we gathered to celebrate the San Diego Housing Federation’s 35th Anniversary—a milestone that reflects decades of dedication to creating affordable housing and fostering stronger, more equitable communities. It was an evening filled with inspiring stories, heartfelt connections, and a shared commitment to continue building a future where everyone has a place to call home.
More than 130 attendees, including founders, board members, partners, members of the Federation, and elected officials, joined us at Stone Brewing in Liberty Station. The night was a vibrant celebration of our collective achievements, providing an opportunity for networking and reflection on the progress we have made together.
A special thank you to our incredible Founders, Board members, partners, and the Federation team, whose passion and hard work made this celebration so memorable. We also want to recognize the dedication and contributions of our board members who are stepping down—your leadership and support have been invaluable over the years. And, of course, our deepest gratitude goes to our community of advocates and changemakers—your unwavering dedication drives the progress we’ve seen and the progress still to come.
As we mark this milestone, we look forward to the next chapter of impactful collaboration and advocacy. Here’s to continuing our mission to ensure affordable housing and thriving communities for all!
