Angel Island Immigration Station Foundation

In San Francisco, the Angel Island Immigration Station Foundation is a nonprofit organization focused on preserving the island's historic immigration station and sharing its stories. The site served as the West Coast's largest immigration port from 1910 to 1940, processing, detaining, or interrogating approximately 500,000 immigrants from 80 countries. The Foundation offers guided and self-guided visits, field trips, and virtual field trips. History is explored through exhibits, poetry, curricula, and the Vault, alongside programs such as community story circles and events featuring immigrant voices. It also provides family research resources and hosts public programs, including hands-on history activities and conversations about immigration traditions. Its office is at 870 Market Street, Suite 901, San Francisco; the historic station is on Angel Island in Tiburon.
