The annual Juanita MORE! Pride Party, a San Francisco institution only slightly less elevated than cable cars, is celebrating 20 years. This party is more than just a lot of fun. It is one of Pride Weekend’s most significant nonprofit events.
Each year, Juanita takes great pleasure in selecting some of our community’s most impactful organizations as beneficiaries. Over the past three decades, the community has raised well over $1 million for local charities by supporting events.
This year, the grand diva has chosen the LYRIC Center of LGBTQQ Youth (Lavender Youth Recreation and Information Center) in the San Francisco Bay Area as my annual Pride Party beneficiary.
“I have an immense amount of respect for our queer elders and a responsibility to empower our queer youth,” Juanita told GayCities. “Our community has thrived because of the brave generations before us; those legends planted the seeds of love, compassion, strength, and resilience. My duty as a community leader is to keep those planted seeds alive.”
“I want to keep building our future by supporting our queer youth in their quest to carry on the legacy of our queer elders.”
On the eve of this great party’s 20th anniversary, GayCities asked Juanita to share each official party poster and narrate the highlights of the parties, year over year, starting in 2004.
