GLIDE's Young Professionals Committee (YPC) will host its annual GLIDE Summer Gala on Saturday, August 15, at The Chapel in San Francisco, bringing together the next generation of community leaders, advocates, and changemakers for an evening of music, celebration, and philanthropy.
Held from 8 p.m. to midnight, the Summer Gala will feature a lively dance party, cocktails, community connection, inspiring stories, and the presentation of the 2026 Reverend Cecil Williams and Janice Mirikitani Legacy Awards. Designed as a "party with a purpose," the event celebrates GLIDE's enduring commitment to radical inclusion, unconditional love, and social justice, while raising critical funds to support its life-changing programs.
The Young Professionals Committee is a dedicated group of emerging leaders committed to introducing new audiences to GLIDE's mission through volunteer opportunities, community engagement, and fundraising events that inspire action and connection. As San Francisco changemakers, committee members believe that supporting the city's most vulnerable residents requires both collective action and celebration.
"Celebration is one of GLIDE's core values because joy and community are essential to creating lasting change," said Dr. Gina Fromer, GLIDE President and CEO. "The Summer Gala is an opportunity to come together in solidarity, celebrate the resilience of our community, and invest in a future where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. Every ticket purchased helps support GLIDE's work providing meals, housing support, healthcare, recovery services, advocacy, and pathways out of poverty for thousands of individuals and families."
Funds raised through ticket sales and sponsorships will support GLIDE's ongoing efforts to fight poverty in the Tenderloin, champion civil rights, revitalize downtown San Francisco, and strengthen communities throughout the Bay Area.
Early Bird tickets are currently available for $75 for a limited time. Sponsorship opportunities are also available for businesses and individuals interested in supporting GLIDE's mission.
