Little Italy San Jose Foundation
The Little Italy San Jose Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to revitalizing the historic Italian settlement in Downtown San Jose, known as the River Street Historic District, which dates back to the 1880s. Through initiatives such as the installation of a Gateway Arch, Piazza Piccola Italia, and the celebration of Italian heritage with events like the Little Italy Street Festival, the foundation aims to foster community and promote authentic Italian businesses.
The foundation is currently raising funds for the Little Italy San Jose Cultural Center Museum, which will serve as a community hub featuring exhibits on Italian-American history, genealogy research, and cultural programming. With plans for a variety of educational and recreational facilities, including bocce courts and children's programs, the museum will be the heart of the Little Italy San Jose community, celebrating its rich heritage for future generations.
