Good morning! Here’s the latest:
How should D9 Supervisor-elect Jackie Fielder lead? Oscar Palma talks with neighbors in the Mission, Portola, and Bernal Heights about their hopes for the district—and their complaints.
The Mission’s own La Doña headlines the 43rd Annual Encuentro de Canto Popular this Sunday—along with her father, Miguel Govea, who played the first Encuentro in 1982 with Los Peludos. Lots more special holiday events coming up—see our full calendar for details.
Thank you to everyone who’s given to support Mission Local during our end-of -year fundraising drive. We’re getting closer to our goal! Special shout-out to loyal readers and donors Penelope Van Tuyl, Ray Mullen, and Michael Taylor.
More soon,
Sara
We’re hoping to raise $200,000 by Dec. 31
We have $85,000 in matching funds for our end-of-year-fundraising campaign, meaning every dollar given right now is doubled. Will you help us reach our goal?
