The TransLatin@ Coalition event raises funds for life-affirming services, including HIV care and prevention, while celebrating trans joy.

The TransLatin@ Coalition held its inaugural Walk4Humanity to raise funding that the president has cut during his ongoing anti-trans crusade. The result was a community triumph.

On Sunday, August 24, 2025, Sunset Junction became the epicenter of resilience and unity as hundreds joined Walk4Humanity, a mobilization of love, power, and justice for Trans, Gender Expansive, and Intersex (TGI) individuals—especially Black, Brown, and immigrant communities.

The Walk4Humanity is from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Aug. 24. It starts at Sunset Junction in Silverlake and ends at Western Ave. in Hollywood. For more information and to register, visit Walk4Humanity.org. This segment aired on the KTLA 5 Morning News on Aug. 19, 2025.
