Love is radical.\u00a0 Love is innovative.\u00a0 Love is a game-changer.<\/p>\n

At least, all of the above is true when GLIDE<\/a> puts that love into practice.<\/p>\n

GLIDE, a social justice movement and spiritual community, has been serving those in need and advocating for change for more than 50 years.\u00a0 Located in San Francisco’s Tenderloin district, GLIDE serves homeless, low-income and disenfranchised individuals and families.\u00a0 Their goal: to break the cycle of poverty while alleviating suffering.<\/p>\n

And if you’re in the San Francisco area on Wednesday evening, you can support that mission–while celebrating with the community during GLIDE’s Annual Holiday Jam, Love Prevails!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"India.Arie<\/a>

Four-time Grammy-Award-winning singer\/songwriter India.Arie will offer a special performance.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The world-renowned GLIDE Ensemble, featuring Vernon Bush and the Change Band, will be performing.\u00a0 (They’re a 100-voice gospel choir and an eight-piece band, respectively.)<\/p>\n

\"Singer<\/a>

So will Grammy-Award-winning backup singer Lisa Fischer, who has worked with such legendary musicians as Tina Turner and Luther Vandross.\u00a0 The evening’s MC will be Dr. Renel Brooks-Moon.<\/p>\n

And as if that program weren’t “tasty” enough–some of the Bay Area’s best restaurants will be on hand, to offer attendees a chance to try their signature specialties!<\/p>\n

Individual tickets are available through this link<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Prices range from $50 to $100.<\/p>\n

Now–what’s the money for?<\/p>\n

\"Two<\/a><\/p>\n

Well, proceeds from GLIDE’s Annual Holiday Jam fund their year-round social-service programs–including the 750,000 free meals served annually, to local individuals and families most in need, through “Mo’s Kitchen”, a Daily Free Meals program.<\/p>\n

Other GLIDE services include housing assistance, after-school and summer youth programs, and on-site access to free primary and behavioral health care.<\/p>\n

GLIDE’s Annual Holiday Jam, Love Prevails, also has VIP tickets and sponsorships available.\u00a0 (Wouldn’t that be a nice way to honor someone you love, who says, “I don’t need anything” as you’re thinking of gift-giving?)<\/p>\n

Doors open at 5:30 pm, Wednesday, November 28th, for GLIDE’s Annual Holiday Jam Love Prevails, at The Masonic, 1111 California Street, between Taylor and Jones, in San Francisco.\u00a0\u00a0 The program starts at 7:00 pm.<\/em><\/strong><\/h5>\n
