Ben Leech has found a unique way to combine fundraising and public outreach through enamel pins depicting vintage San Jose signs, positively impacting preservation efforts.
This venture started as an unexpected fundraising initiative, evolving into a significant part of the Preservation Action Council's operating budget while raising community awareness.
Leech designs the pins himself by tracing photographs, emphasizing that while financial support is important, the initiative serves dual purposes of funding and engaging the public in preservation efforts.
The Preservation Action Council’s enamel pins not only showcase historical elements of San Jose but also foster connections between the community and its cultural heritage.
