What an extraordinary way to usher in the holidays. This year marked the 33rd incredible Songs of the Season, and our community showed up with overwhelming love and support — selling out both nights in record time and helping raise nearly $40,000 for PRC’s life-changing services.




Held at the iconic Feinstein’s at the Nikko, this year’s show sparkled with an unforgettable lineup of San Francisco legends and powerhouse voices including the event’s remarkably talented producer Brian Kent, Songs of the Season founder and fundraising extraordinaire Donna Sachet, Sister Roma, Kenny Nelson, Charles Jones, Kippy Marks, Brian Justin Crum, Meghan Murphy, Leanne Borghesi, and our phenomenal band — Roberta Drake, Dee Spencer, Trevor Acebo and Collin Williams.

It was also the first Songs of the Season attended by PRC’s ever-charismatic new CEO, Dr. Deborah Hawkes, whose presence lit up the room. Dr. Hawkes shared her deeply personal motivation for serving communities impacted by HIV: the loss of her “biggest advocate and beloved cousin” who supported her in being her true self and embodied all the fabulousness and beautiful energy imaginable, in the days before today’s lifesaving regimens were accessible.
Her heartfelt tribute to those we’ve lost, and to those we continue to support, moved the entire room into a tidal wave of generosity — raising an additional $3,000 in under five minutes. The energy was electric.
And we are so close to our goal.
We’ve raised nearly $40,000 to support PRC’s lifesaving services— and with just a little more support from our incredible community, we can reach this milestone.
If you’d like to help bring us across the finish line, we are still gratefully accepting donations.
A huge part of what brought us so close to our goal includes a record number of sponsors including our presenting sponsor, Tito’s Handmade Vodka, and the steadfast support of PRC’s Board of Directors — including Songs of the Season Board Event Champion and sponsor Michael Kyle, Board President Darren Smith, and board sponsors Ahmad Henry and Jacob Schaaf. We are deeply grateful for their leadership and their unwavering commitment to PRC’s mission.




Thank you for helping make this season brighter for the people we serve — and for ensuring PRC remains a lifeline of stability, dignity, and hope for thousands across San Francisco.
With so much gratitude,
The PRC Team
