100 Years of Hollywood
Make MPTF strong for generations to come
Established in 1921, MPTF has provided a critical safety net to the Southern California entertainment community for nearly 100 years. We need your help in sustaining and building our foundation of care and support for the next 100 years.
100 Years of Hollywood
A Celebration of Service
Call it the little engine that could – our 100th Anniversary celebration event that saw many starts and stops over the past few years as we followed the unpredictable cadence of the pandemic and the health protocols that went along with it. But on June 18, 2022 at the historic The Lot at Formosa (once known as Pickford-Fairbanks Studio and Goldwyn Studios and once owned very briefly by MPTF), we all got together to honor Marilyn and Jeffrey Katzenberg with our Silver Medallion and salute 100 (well, call it 101) years of service to the Hollywood entertainment industry. It was a festive evening of song, dance, and sparks of gratitude from celebrities and members of the community who we’ve helped over the years– all of them reminding us that “taking care of our own” has rewards beyond measure.
