You’re invited to join us for LA Graduation 2026, a special evening celebrating Point Scholars and the community that has supported them every step of the way. 

Each year, LA Graduation brings together scholars, alumni, and supporters to honor the achievements of Point’s graduating class and the collective impact of this community. As the nation’s largest scholarship-granting organization for LGBTQ+ and ally postsecondary students, Point Foundation is proud to celebrate our 2026 graduates. We hope you’ll join us for an evening of connection, celebration, and inspiration.

During the evening, you’ll enjoy:

  • Reflections from Point leadership on the Class of 2026 and what’s ahead
  • A powerful story from a graduating Point Scholar
  • Complimentary hors d’oeuvres and cocktails
  • Time to connect with Point Scholars, alumni, and supporters from across Southern California
