Established in 1941,
 in continuous operation ever since

Piedmont Pines wins praise from civic leaders as being one of Oakland's most organized and productive voluntary neighborhood associations. 

When we speak, we're listened to.

Why?  Decision makers know our residents care and stay engaged. They know we exercise our loud voice. We pitch in on beautification projects, keep one another informed, protect against crime, gain emergency preparedness skills, and the list goes on.  And we vote.

We count on your voluntary dues

Are we worth your dues?  We sure think so. Just take a look at the next column for a small peek at what we do and how we work to keep our community informed, engaged and in touch.

Our dues, which are completely voluntary, begin at only $35 for an entire calendar year. MANY pay more because of the value they get from having a strong, vocal association working on their bahalf.  Help keep us strong: Visit the PPNA Projects  tab to see how we engage to make our neighborhood special, inviting, welcoming and FABULOUS. We can only do it with your support. Our dues year begins January 1, and all memberships expire on December 31. Keep your dues current so you don't miss out on important information.

What your 2025 dues made possible

We’re not just a neighborhood association — we’re
a community, a family, and a force for good. And
YOU are at the heart of it all.

Your support isn’t just appreciated — it’s essential.
Your dues power every initiative, every event, and
every effort we make to keep our neighborhood
safe, informed, connected, and thriving.
So… are we delivering value for your
investment?

We think so.
But don’t take our word for it — here’s a quick
look at what you helped make possible last
year...

2025 Highlights: Powered by You


Civic Leadership & Transparency

  • Our March Town Hall brought Oakland’s top  leaders together to tackle budget, paving, and public safety questions.

  • We partnered with the League of Women Voters for a dynamic election forum that broke down ranked-choice voting and the sales tax measure.

Emergency Preparedness

  • MON leaders were trained to use the Evacuation Board Game to run drills in their own micro-neighborhoods.

  • Fire Chief Damon Covington and OFD experts joined us for a deep-dive fire safety webinar focused on hillside homes and preparing us for our 2025 vegetation inspections.

Community Impact & Giving

  • Our Donation Drop-off Day filled a semi-truck with gently used goods for The Salvation Army to sell.

  • You shattered our Virtual Food Drive goal — raising $22,666 by year's end for the Alameda County Community Food Bank.

Environmental Stewarship

  • Neighbors rolled up their sleeves for Earth Day, Creek to Bay Day, and multiple green-waste cleanups across the hills, marking a huge reduction of fire fuel.

Community Connection

  • Our 4th Annual Family Fun Day Picnic brought neighbors of all ages together for food, sunshine, and connection.

Every event, every forum, every
act of service — it’s all because of
you.
Thank you for showing up,
speaking out, and standing
together.
Let’s keep the momentum going.
Here’s to an even brighter 2026 —
together
