Participate in Our Community Luminaries Room Sponsorship Program at our New Space!

One of the exciting ways you can fill an unmet need, make a lasting impact and leave a legacy is by sponsoring the naming of rooms in our new space. We’re excited to launch our Community Luminaries Room Sponsorship Program: By participating, you will help us decide what to name our spaces, and your fund, business or organization will receive acknowledgement on signage in our building. Please contact Christopher, our Board President, if you’d like more information on this opportunity.

Also, we still have some move-related projects that are unfunded:

  • Three Owls or other hybrid units to outfit our meeting rooms for hybrid services: ~$4000 for project

  • Three wall monitors for meeting spaces: ~$1900 for project

  • Two computer stations for our youth space: ~$3500 for project

If you’d like to make a donation earmarked for one of these projects, please drop Lasara a note and they will get in touch to discuss which project(s) you want to fund, and set up your donation.

Upcoming Events:

Come join us at the East Bay's premier LGBTQ+ Pride Race, EBFRW's 19th Annual Pride Run and Walk! They are offering both in-person and virtual options, with running and walking events. The Center will support them as runners or as volunteers! If you’d like to join as runner or volunteer, please contact: kitty@pacificcenter.org

Oakland Pride/fest: Sept 10, 2023

Join us this year at Oakland Pride and Pridefest Oakland. The two organizations have joined forces to create a sponsorship of strength and respect while elevating our unified mission to celebrate and support the cultures and diversity of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer+ (LGBTQ+) community in Oakland and the surrounding Bay Area.


We will be tabling and providing information regarding the center’s services. Stop by and say hi!
