This year’s LGBTQ + Allies Pink Privacy Club fundraising event, which was hosted at the stunning Rhythm Room located in Downtown Los Angeles, was an unforgettable night filled with celebration and community.
With the incredible support from our sponsors, performers, and guests, the event raised a meaningful amount that will significantly fuel the initiatives of the partnering nonprofits and continue making a difference for the LGBTQ+ community. This year’s local nonprofit collaboration was with two local LA charities, Pacific Pride Foundation and Project Contrast. We’re proud to have raised donations for both organizations, supporting their vital work within the community.
Comments from Pacific Pride Foundation: "These funds will be used to provide emergency harm reduction education and resources to LGBTQ youth, empowering them with the knowledge and tools to make safer choices in critical and vulnerable moments."
Comments from Project Contrast: "This donation will help us on our trips next year for our next project. This will be our first tour since the book came out to work with new queer youth and helping them find community where they are. Again, reminding you that the events we hold are held in rural America. Many of these kids have never met another queer kid like them before. We also will be holding an interview series next year with the youth and older queer generations. We are very excited about that. So this donation will help us get to the youth and execute our next projects. Which will most likely then lead to our next book."
We’d also like to extend a huge thank you to the LGBTQ+ Allies Fundraising Planning Committee. Your dedication, hard work, and commitment behind the scenes made this event not only possible but truly exceptional. Your efforts continue to inspire, and we are so grateful for everything you do!
Of course, this evening wouldn’t have been the same without our fantastic sponsors. Your ongoing support allows us to pursue and grow our mission. Thank you to Transcend for being our returning marquee sponsor!
Our talented entertainers also deserve special recognition— thank you to Dextra De Novo, Scarlett Business, Pickle, and J Lau, your performances brought energy and excitement to the event. And finally, a big thank you to The Rhythm Room for hosting us in such a perfect setting for this celebration.
The Pink Privacy Club event served as a powerful reminder of what can be accomplished when community members, organizations, and allies come together for a common goal. As we wrap up this event season, we look forward to what’s ahead, a LGBTQ + Allies Fundraising event at the IAPP Europe Data Protection Congress 2024 in Brussels on November 20th! Stay tuned for more information and can’t wait to continue this journey together.
