Yes, 2nd Annual Community Thanksgiving Feast hosted by Just Us 4 Youth * How will the Donations/Sponsorship be used? (The donation must primarily serve a public purpose, as opposed to solely benefiting an individual or private organization.)
This would allow us to purchase the Thanksgiving warm meal fixings to be served, giveaway items, supplies and food for the Thanksgiving baskets for families to enjoy with their families. This would also allow us to have the much needed resources readily available for the families that may express the need. Last year we rented 2-3 15 passenger vans to pick up youth and their families to get to the event. To be able to do that again this year would be really beneficial. * 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)
This would be our 2nd Annual City of Pomona Thanksgiving Feast. Last year we served 280 community members a warm meal and gave out about $1,000 worth of giveaways. Everyone who attended received a $10 gift card and a Thanksgiving food basket to take home to enjoy with their families. Our community had the opportunity to join us on stage to share what they are thankful for and the stories shared were very moving. Families left with photos.This year we are planning to serve 400 community members.

The city has been strong allies to the LGBTQIA community. Seeing such tremendous growth in the community where people feel much more comfortable being their authentic self. The city has an opportunity to invest in an organization that serves the Pomona Valley region. The benefit is being the leader in supporting the LGBTQIA community. Pomona is warm, welcoming and supportive of all its residents and adding a community center directly across the street is like igniting the heart of Pomona.
