Contributions to The Long Beach Rosie the Riveter Foundation are needed in order to further develop and maintain the historic enhancements made to Rosie the Riveter Park in Long Beach – the first interactive historic park in our city.
The Long Beach Rosie the Riveter Foundation was specifically established in 2008 as a tax-exempt organization whose mission is to develop the park and provide a last memorial and interpretive center.
The Long Beach Rosie the Riveter Foundation began raising funds for the first phase of design of Rosie the Riveter Park during its “Celebrating Women’s History Month Event” on March 21, 2009.
The 3 acre Rosie the Riveter Park is maintained by the City of Long Beach Parks, Recreation and Marine Department.
A Donation Program was established by The Long Beach Rosie the Riveter Foundation based upon the desires of families, friends and organizations to honor their loved ones and participate in the continued development of the park and interpretive center.
The projects are sponsored by money raised through the donation program are outside the scope of the normal operations and are only possible through your generous donations.
