Virtual Livestream Tickets and Silent Auction Open! Rainbow Days’ Pot of Gold Luncheon Featuring Keynote Speaker Josh Shipp
Rainbow Days is excited to announce the availability of a virtual livestream ticket option for its 24th annual Pot of Gold Luncheon featuring keynote speaker Josh Shipp.
The 2021 Pot of Gold Luncheon will be held at the Omni Dallas Hotel on Friday, June 25, 2021. Rainbow Days will be implementing a series of health and safety precautions for this in-person fundraising event. However, for guests and supporters who are unable to attend in person, tickets to access a virtual livestream of the event are now available for purchase for $100 each at www.RainbowDays.org/POG2021/purchases. The luncheon livestream will begin promptly at 12:30 p.m. June 25.
Rainbow Days is thrilled to have best-selling author Josh Shipp serve as the 2021 Pot of Gold Luncheon Keynote Speaker. Statistically, Josh should be dead, in jail or homeless. However, his success as a preeminent author, speaker and global youth empowerment expert is living proof of the power of one caring adult. A former at-risk foster kid turned youth advocate, Josh is renowned for the documentary TV series on A&E that followed his groundbreaking work with youth and families. He has written two national bestsellers to date and is regularly called on by OPRAH, CNN, FOX, The New York Times, 20/20, Good Morning America and others to provide commentary on common challenges faced by parents and teachers.
Rainbow Days is honored to have Kyle Coots and Ross DeRogatis as the 2021 Pot of Gold Luncheon Chairs. In addition to serving as a member of Rainbow Days’ Executive Board of Directors, Kyle is the co-founder and managing director of Miramar Equity Partners. Ross is the president and owner of Matrix Orthopedics and lives in Southlake with his family.
This year’s event leadership also includes 2021 Pot of Gold Auction Chairs Melissa Griffith and Talene Kozanian. Both Melissa and Talene are residents of Dallas and have previously been involved with Rainbow Days as volunteers.
