Event Details

On August 5, 2009, the Equality Network, a not-for profit organization, will host a major fundraising event in West Hollywood, California at Eleven Bar and Restaurant to support our organization’s efforts to reverse Proposition 8, which effectively prohibits gays and lesbians from marrying.

The event will include a silent auction, photo booths, live performances, massage chairs, and a roster of top DJs. The legendary Heklina of San Francisco's Tranny Shack will serve as the Mistress of Ceremonies. Comedic and musical performances by a number of rising celebrities.

We need to raise $10,000 for grassroots community organizing activities by the end of summer. We need your help to defeat hate! We need your help to guarantee civil rights to all members of the LGBT community. To date, most major club promoters, drag queens, and DJs in our community have signed on to publicize and co-host this event.
