PRIDE WISHES BEST OF LUCK TO OUTGOING CO-CHAIR, EBONY ALDRIDGE
San Diego LGBT Pride announced today that Ebony Aldridge will be leaving her position at Pride and moving on to work on other opportunities. Ebony thanked the Board, Staff and Community for affording her the opportunity to lead the organization through another successful event this year.
Additionally, William Rodriguez-Kennedy has resigned his post as Co-Chair-Elect in order to pursue his passion of creating change and affecting policy in the political arena of the city and county of San Diego. Pride wishes him much success in those endeavors.
“On behalf of the San Diego LGBT Pride Board of Directors, Staff, and even the community, we want to thank both Ebony and William for all their hard work, dedication and passion they contributed to the team here at Pride,” stated Co-Chair Joseph Mayer.
Joseph also remarked, “Pride is resilient. Although we have work to do in building the board’s membership, experience, and resources, I want to ensure you that the Executive team is committed and we will make that happen! Pride is a big commitment of time and energy but you can look at the results and see that it is worth it!”
