The Los Angeles City Council recently presented Liberty Hill Foundation with a special proclamation at City Hall to honor our 50th anniversary.

It was a deeply moving moment to reflect on five decades of community power, courageous organizing, and the shared belief that Los Angeles can become a more just and equitable place for all.

As we look back on Liberty Hill’s first 50 years, we are reminded that lasting change is never built alone. It is built through community, solidarity, and long-term investment in the people closest to the challenges and closest to the solutions.

This incredible milestone belongs to the many people who have helped make Liberty Hill’s work possible—frontline organizers, community partners, donor activists, and friends like you. Your partnership has helped fuel the movements, ideas, and victories that continue to shape our city.

We are deeply grateful to Council President Harris-Dawson, Councilmember Blumenfield, Councilmember Soto-Martínez, and the entire Los Angeles City Council for recognizing Liberty Hill’s legacy and honoring the generations of changemakers who carry it forward.

Experience the celebration firsthand! Watch the presentation recap video above to hear inspiring words and reflections from key civic leaders, Liberty Hill’s President & CEO, and our co-founder.
