La Jolla, California

How You Can Help

Friends of Hidden Valley is committed to preserving the peaceful, uncongested quality of La Jolla's residential neighborhoods. We believe there is a more appropriate location for the Chabad complex. If you agree, we would appreciate your support.

Notices of meetings with public officials will appear on the Home page of this website as soon as they are scheduled. Please try to attend the meetings and help your neighbors stay informed. Everyone who lives or works in La Jolla would be negatively impacted by the Chabad project - not just residents of Hidden Valley. It's important that all La Jollans attend meetings and show support. The Chabad Center could set a precedent that would spread to other areas of the community.

We would also welcome financial contributions to help us cover attorney fees and other expenses. Checks made out to "Friends of Hidden Valley" can be sent to P. O. Box 1721, La Jolla, CA 92038.

We encourage you to share your concerns by writing Letters to the Editors of our local papers.
