For a foundation that’s made such a public commitment to turn City Heights around, you’d expect its president to come to an interview armed with statistics that trumpet the group’s accomplishments in the community. That didn’t happen with Robert Price of Price Philanthropies.
“We haven’t focused so much on statistics,” he said. “We’re more about doing. We feel that if we’re doing enough good things here, a lot of it will stick and help people.”
Price Philanthropies has transformed the physical and nonprofit landscapes of City Heights, developing more than 50 acres with affordable housing, a police station and library.
