Love to Our Community for Last Night’s Heartbeat of City College Prop O Fundraiser

Last night was a beautiful celebration of the best of City College, and we would like to thank the staff, faculty, students, & community members who participated. Over 150 gathered for drinks, performances, and of course the film premiere of the Heartbeat of City College, CCSF instructor Tehmina Khan’s poem-turned-film. See a livestream of the event here.

Thank you to the California Nurses Association, Supervisor Dean Preston, Public Defender Mano Raju, Elizabeth Smith, & Guy de Primo who gave big at the event, and especially to the students from the CCSF theater, music, dance, and film departments, who made the night so special with their wonderful performances. Gratitude to the food and beverage donations from Laurie Hughes at Nana’s Pies, alumni Reene Hutchins (see on instagram here), Eduardo Antonio owner of Cafe de Olla & CCSF Culinary Alumni, David Hill Winery, and everyone who generously gave to the raffle. Our deepest appreciation to Lee Strawn and the songs of his CCSF music students, Patricia Miller and her inspired improvisational theater students, Lee Derrick and his masterful Ultimate Dance Alliance, and Tehmina Khan, Alexi Lacey, Wynn Newbery, and the entire Heartbeat of City College cast and crew.

Your passion, talent, and commitment helped the City College community raise $12,317 from over 130 donors last night. This money will be essential to funding the fight against the corporate real estate interests opposing Proposition O.
