  1. Thank you to everyone who attended and helped at the Spokane Rainbow Awards! It was a great evening for everyone.

    Farand and Jenne Lee did a great job hosting the ceremony! Rose Wardian was the amazing Chef who filled out tummys with great food!

    I am very proud to have been a part of the Steering committee this past year and I am looking forward to many more!

    Thank you Pride Foundation for all the great things you do for our community here in Spokane and the surrounding areas!
