The Parade and Festival don’t just happen. Months of preparation precede the event, and some decisions have to be made on more than one level. Community Link, Inc. is the parent organization from which the  funding comes. Fresno Rainbow Pride is just one of many projects of Community Link, and some Community Link members are also on the committee  for Fresno Rainbow Pride. Finally, some of them are part of the Day Of Event working crew.

The committee has open meetings every Wednesday at 7pm at 1055 N. Van Ness Ave. in the conference room, except for first Wednesdays of each month, when we meet at the Starline, 833 E. Fern Ave, also at 7pm.

Here are the names of the people without whom this couldn’t happen!
