Moraga Community Foundation

The Moraga Community Foundation is just wrapping up the largest fundraising campaign in our history. Thanks to over 120 generous donors, we have raised more than $430,000 to enhance the Moraga Common’s Park by replacing the 49-year-old bathrooms with new gender-neutral ADA restrooms, planting additional trees with new irrigation, installing a water bottle refill fountain, replacing the 40-year-old flagpole, and contributing funds for an updated ADA picnic area.
