PAST PROJECTS
Since 2008, the LJCF has been working on improvement projects that enhance the community. Through the generous support of donors, the LJCF completed a number of successful initiatives. Most notably, the LJCF led and underwrote the formation of the Maintenance Assessment District (MAD) in the Village and launched and developed the Murals of La Jolla, now a project of the Athenaeum. Our community has benefited from the MAD with street cleaning, additional trash pick-up, and attractive landscaping. The Murals of La Jolla program is now a distinguishing feature of the community and has made it an art destination.
