In 2017, 8-year-old Jonah Hwang tragically lost his life to gun violence. He loved Superheroes. His family celebrated his life with a Superheroes-themed memorial with all his school friends in attendance dressed in their favorite characters. In response to the outpouring of love for Jonah, we created the Pomona Children's Festival to give children a full day in the park to just "be a kid".

Galán Cultural Center, a new non-profit organization, offers low-cost folklorico classes and costumes in Pomona. However our folklorico "No Te Rajes Jalisco" has been in the community for 25 yrs. Despite the pandemic, the center's first fundraiser, MEXICO, FIESTA Y TRADICION, aims to grant scholarships to youth and create programs for teaching dance and culture. The center's motto is "Get Active! Get involved and be proud of your heritage."and by contributing you will be a good example of this. * What is the benefit to the City of Pomona? (An expenditure of public funds must be for primary benefit of the public agency that is making the expenditure)
Our goal is to continue serving, our community being able to grant scholarships to the youth of Pomona, and create training programs for those in our community who are interested to instruct this form of art and spreading our culture through its dance, music, and folklore. With the hope of expanding and offering this program with other local organizations.
