The Master of Ceremonies, American actress and transgender activist, Shakina Nayfack, most notable for her series regular role as Lola, a "trans-truther,“ on the second and third seasons of the HULU television program Difficult People, took the stage by storm from start to finish delivering a winning ebb-and-flow of energy throughout the evening.

A “WELCOME” message from Frank Guzman, Chief Executive Officer — Pomona Pride Center, and Roberto Munoz, Board Chairperson — Pomona Pride Center, opened the gala fundraiser ceremony with thoughtful, inspiring, and rhyming words of reach and appreciation.

“We are overwhelmed by the love and support shared by our Sponsors and VIP Guests this evening as we look forward in building an even bigger, stronger, and increasingly more dynamic organization in 2024 and beyond with your continued commitment and support,” stated Frank Guzman, Chief Executive Officer — Pomona Pride Center.

“This evening’s event will advance our dedicated and concerted efforts since establishing the POMONA PRIDE CENTER in 2019 as a leading voice and proactive movement on behalf of the LGBTQIA+ community, around-the-corner and around-the-world,” added Roberto Munoz, Board Chairperson — Pomona Pride Center.

The evening’s Keynote Speaker, Dr. Jih-Fei Cheng, Associate Professor of Feminist, Gender, and Sexuality Studies; Chair, Feminist, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at SCRIPPS COLLEGE, was then introduced by Frank Guzman and Roberto Munoz.

The audience responded with generous applause and cheers.
