Little Italy San Jose Fundraising Gala - November 21st, 2009

The Little Italy San Jose committee will be hosting a special evening of authentic Italian cuisine, entertainment by renown Italian musician; Pasquale Esposito and fine Italian wines to raise money to bring a thriving new business district to Downtown San Jose. The gala is the launching point of an effort to raise $200,000 for the Little Italy project. The proceeds will be utilized to build three archway entrances and a beautiful tile mosaic mural depicting Italian American History in Santa Clara County under the adjacent Guadalupe Freeway underpass.

 

In order to keep administrative costs to a minimum, we have partnered with Silicon Valley Community Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. The Little Italy San Jose Fund is a donor advised fund at Silicon Valley Community Foundation, allowing sponsorships and donations to be tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law. Silicon Valley Community Foundation's Federal Tax ID number is 20-5205488.

The Little Italy committee is a grass roots effort made up of members of various Italian organizations, and those interested in Italian culture. The proposed site for Little Italy San Jose is the River Street area of downtown.  Specifically, it is the area bound by W. St John, N. Almaden Ave, W. Julian, and River Street just blocks from the HP Pavilion.  The River Street area was home to the first settlement of Italian Americans from the 1870’s to 1900 so it serves as the ideal location for San Jose’s own Little Italy.  The historic homes will be refurbished and renovated to house restaurants, bars, and shops to bring new energy to downtown.
