Edit: 1/5/26: You have helped us meet our goal! Read this thank you message from our President & CEO, Woody LaBounty.

Edit: 12/22/25: We’re halfway to our goal! Help us raise $60,000 in support of our preservation work in 2026.

As we reach the end of another year, we wanted to thank everyone who has supported San Francisco Heritage’s mission of preserving the places that make San Francisco special.

Preservation supports tourist revenue, decreases the effects of climate change, prevents displacement, retains naturally affordable housing, does not depress property values, and is a significant positive factor in community wellness surveys.

—Woody LaBounty, SF Heritage President & CEO

Lotta’s Fountain pin

Since 1875, Lotta’s Fountain, a gift from the entertainer Lotta Crabtree, has stood at the intersection of Market and Kearny streets in downtown San Francisco. It is the city’s oldest public monument and is recognized as both a city and nationally-designated landmark.

SOMA stickers

South of Market has long been the beating heart of the city from its Gold Rush industrial and manufacturing roots through post-1906 earthquake reconstruction to early 21st century tech booms. Our special six-sticker pack designed by artist Ally Hernandez celebrates the diverse people and places that make this neighborhood special.

The special pin and sticker pack offer is live starting now. Tell your friends to subscribe to our emails or follow us on social media for the latest updates!

*while supplies last. Please allow 7–10 days processing and shipping time to receive your pins and/or stickers.
