About Us

Mission

Portuguese Heritage Publications of California, Inc. is a non-profit organization 501 c (3), created to research, preserve and disseminate for educational purpose, vanishing memories and current relevant events about the Portuguese presence in California.

Vision

To capture for posterity, the Portuguese-American experience in California and the human drama that encompasses.

Managed by a volunteer-based Board of Directors and Executive Committee, PHPC also relies on hundreds of volunteers statewide, for the critical regional research required by each project.

Member Organizations

PHPC is extremely appreciative of the support and direction it receives from Portuguese organizations state wide, without which the communication “linkage” with the various Portuguese communities spread throughout California, would become a daunting task.

MVA_0917PHPC is proud to have the following organizations, listed in alphabetical order, represented in its Board:

  • Centro de Evangelizaçço e Cultura, Tulare
  • Institute for Azorean-American Studies, Tulare
  • Irmandade do Espirito Santo (IDES) Supreme Council, Hayward
  • J.A. Freitas Library, San Leandro
  • Luso American Education Foundation, Dublin
  • Portuguese Education Foundation of Central Valley, Turlock
  • Portuguese Heritage Society of California, San Jose
  • Portuguese Historical and Cultural Society, Sacramento
  • Portuguese Historical Center, San Diego
  • SES, Supreme Council, Santa Clara

If your organization is not listed above, perhaps you would like to be affiliated/ represented at the PHPC Board of Directors. To inquire how your organization can become a member, please contact us.

Volunteers

Portuguese Heritage Publications of California is always looking for and welcomes with open arms, volunteer contributors.
