Parks California has approved a grant in the amount of $150,000.00
payable to Borrego Valley Endowment Fund as fiscal sponsor of Borrego Village Association. This Grant is to support Borrego Springs High School Interpretation Course and Internship Program. This program enhances the professional development of our students and provides training in essential skills to enable them to find meaningful employment within the California State Parks system. The students cycle through the Anza - Borrego Desert State Park's operational units in order to learn about managing and operating California State Parks. They learn about job and career opportunities in the State Park system, and learn from the Park's Interpretative staff about the nature, history and cultural attributes of the Anza-Borrego Desert region.

Bring New Welcome Signs to Borrego Springs

Update on New Welcome Signs
The Borrego Springs Welcome Sign committee is grateful to the many individuals and businesses who have supported efforts to construct the first new “Welcome to Borrego Springs” sign since the 1970’s. Because of their support, we have raised almost $29,000. Donations have ranged from $10 - $5,000 and we are thankful for every single dollar.
Apparently costs to construct and install the signs have gone up significantly in the last year and a half. Therefore, when we thought we had almost reached our fundraising goal, we were told we might need as much as 50% more. The Borrego Village Association has got to work looking at alternative vendors, we are currently requesting estimates, and still hoping to get the job done for closer to the original estimate.
If you pledged funds, that pledge will likely be requested in December or January. If you donated cash, please know that it is safely in an account earmarked for the welcome sign. If you haven’t donated yet, PLEASE DO! More funding is certainly needed and appreciated, especially as we have two more signs to construct after this one.
To donate:
The Borrego Village Association, a 501c(6) c, nonprofit organization, is leading the fundraising. Contributions checks can be made out to the Borrego Village Association and sent to Borrego Village Association. P.O. Box 1133, Borrego Springs, CA 92004. Donations can also be made via PayPal found on our website at BorregoVillageAssociation.org, or made via Zelle transfer. Pledges can be made using the form below.
