Lake Avenue Community 
Foundation Becomes ‘Stars’

 

 Pasadena’s Lake Avenue 
Community Foundation has 
changed its name to ‘Stars’ to 
avoid confusion with Lake 
Avenue Church and because 
people often assumed from 
the former name that the 
organization is a grant-giving 
foundation.

 Stars’ new web address is www.
gostars.org.

 Stars Executive Director 
Nancy Stiles said that under its 
new name, “Stars will continue 
to be a faith-based organization 
with a strong partnership with 
Lake Avenue Church, and will 
continue to have the same 
vision, mission, and programs, 
but by clarifying the confusion 
we will be better positioned 
to take advantage of funding 
opportunities.”

 She said Stars will remain the 
primary non-profit partner 
of Lake Avenue Church for 
education issues. “We will 
continue to recruit volunteers 
and donors from the LAC 
family, send our students to 
camp alongside LAC, and 
continue to build relationships 
between families, students, 
volunteers, staff, and church 
members.”

 The Stars name is based on 
the organization’s more than 
20-year-old STARS after-school 
program. The STARS acronym 
has been lowercased and its 
meaning broadened to cover all 
the work of the organization: 
after school programming 
for grades 1-12, mentoring, 
summer enrichment, camps, 
trips, college preparation 
and completion support, 
counseling, and partnering 
closely with the parents of 
students to help support the 
whole family.

 The Stars programs are now 
being called Stars 123, Stars 
45, Middle School Stars, High 
School Stars, Stars Mentoring, 
Stars College Support, and 
Stars Summer Enrichment.
