For 79 years, Las Patronas has been one of San Diego’s most quietly powerful forces for good, fueling vital work in supporting the arts, people with disabilities, underserved youth, healthcare, and more.

Rowena Treitler, president of Las Patronas, shares the story behind this all-women, all-volunteer organization. She shares how it started, how La Jolla Cosmetic is connected, and what’s coming up, including their biggest event of the year: the Jewel Ball.

Each year, Las Patronas aims to raise $1 million for local nonprofits. Since 1946, they’ve raised over $27 million and supported more than a thousand organizations.

The 79th annual Jewel Ball is set for August 2, with the theme “Back En Pointe”—a dreamy mix of ballet and Paris flair. Behind the glamour is a night with real purpose, raising funds for five standout nonprofits making a big difference in the community.

For Las Patronas, it’s a labor of love. Their team plans, fundraises, and gives back all year long, quietly, passionately, and with a commitment to lasting impact.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
