Welcome to Protect Point Loma

Protect Point Loma is a 100% grass roots 501c4 organization. Our amazing team consists of community activists and volunteers protecting the Quality of Life in Point Loma.

501c4  EIN: 33-3510409 

 State Charity Registration Number (CT0298575)   Protect Point Loma (PPL) must be a 501(c)4 -- meaning donations are not tax deductible -- because we must retain the capability to litigate, if required.  Tax deductible organizations cannot litigate under the conditions that apply here. We are a small team comprised entirely of Point Lomans in some way affected by the 1004 Rosecrans potential development.  We have retained a litigator; most of what we collect underwrites her time and effort.     We only ask people for their information to keep them apprised of the latest developments; we share it with no one else. Data minimization concepts are applied (no Sensitive Personal Information is collected/retained) and the ISP's cybersecurity meets California and NIST standards. We don't collect banking or other financial information. We take donations however we can get them -- out of necessity -- but prefer the use of electronic transfers (e.g., Venmo) for ease of use and as a cybersafe payment method and use a local bank branch. Financial records are kept in accordance with state and federal law and appropriate filings were  made. 

Seeing a need for energetic, nonprofit work in our community, we formed Protect Point Loma 501c4 to protect and preserve our historic neighborhood . Our organization tries to provide sensible solutions and also brings awareness to our neighbors regarding issues due to projects and developments that skipped community conversations. We've consistently grown, all thanks to the helping hands of this amazing community!
