A 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to protecting, improving, and activating the coastal spaces, parks, recreation programs, and civic traditions that make San Clemente feel like home.
The Friends Foundation exists for one clear purpose: to support and enrich San Clemente's beaches, parks, recreation facilities, youth programs, and community events.
When you look around San Clemente, you can see the results of community giving in playgrounds, recreation amenities, public art, and safety improvements.
Friends supports the programs that bring people together, give kids more opportunity, and keep San Clemente's calendar full of civic life.
Our ability to give back depends on strong community partnerships and dependable fundraising throughout the year.
Together, we can protect our beaches, improve our parks, expand recreation access, and support the community traditions that make San Clemente special for generations to come.
