In the fall, Compassionate Pomona hosts an annual Pomona Kindness Carnival at the Pomona Civic Center that features family-friendly activities. The third annual carnival’s theme was “Unity in the Community.” Entertainment included a Native American blessing, performances by Aztec Dancers, the Pomona Unified School District Honors Choir, and an appearance by Pomona Poet Laureate Cesar Avelar. The event brings together more than 50 organizations, civic leaders and community members to celebrate compassion and uplift local youth.
