The GLIDE Summer Gala, taking place on August 22, 2025, at The Phoenix Hotel, is a night dedicated to music, celebration, and community recognition. It supports GLIDE's mission to combat poverty through unconditional love and social justice. The event includes performances by DJ King Most and the GLIDE Ensemble, along with the awarding of the Janice Mirikitani Legacy Award to Teresa Goines and the Reverend Cecil Williams Legacy Award to Roberto Hernandez for their contributions to youth advocacy and community development.
The Summer Gala is a celebration of the power of a purpose-driven community. It's incredibly moving to witness a new generation of young professionals stepping up with passion, generosity, and vision.
This year's Janice Mirikitani Legacy Award will honor youth advocate Teresa Goines, founder and CEO of Old Skool Cafe.
The Reverend Cecil Williams Legacy Award recipient is SF Carnaval CEO Roberto Hernandez, who has dedicated his life to organizing grassroots movements.
Hosted by and for the next generation of Bay Area philanthropists, changemakers, and creatives, the Summer Gala fuses party energy with progressive action.
