The Getty House Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to civic education, community engagement, and the preservation of Getty House, the official residence of the Mayor of Los Angeles.

In 1993, the Getty House Foundation was established to raise funds for and oversee the refurbishment of Getty House. From 1993 to 1995, the foundation worked with more than 300 Angelenos to restore the house.

Today, the Getty House Foundation primarily oversees programs and outreach initiatives, including the Community Holiday Series, the Engage LA Series, and the Women’s Leadership Series. These programs celebrate our city’s diversity, foster public-private partnerships, and promote civic engagement in Los Angeles.

Getty House also serves as the venue for important mayoral protocol and governmental relations events.
