31st Annual Fundraising Event

Join us and special guests Riley Gaines, Brandon Tatum and Seth Gruber for an inspiring evening supporting Tulare-Kings Resources for Life.

Riley Gaines is a former NCAA Division I swimmer and 12-time All-American who competed for the University of Kentucky. She rose to national prominence after speaking out on fairness in women’s sports, becoming a leading advocate for protecting female athletic competition. Through public speaking, media appearances, and advocacy work, she continues to engage audiences across the country on issues related to sports integrity, opportunity, and equal treatment for women.

Officer Brandon Tatum is a former police officer and a nationally recognized political commentator, speaker, and media personality. After serving in law enforcement, he transitioned into public commentary, where he addresses cultural and political issues from a law-and-order perspective. He is the co-founder of “The Officer Tatum” brand and podcast, where he discusses current events, personal responsibility, and civic engagement. His background in policing and public service shapes his perspective on community, safety, and leadership.

Seth Gruber  is a pro-life speaker, author, and founder of The White Rose Resistance. He is known for his work addressing abortion from a historical, moral, and philosophical perspective, and for training others to communicate pro-life arguments with clarity and conviction. Through speaking engagements, media outreach, and educational efforts, he focuses on equipping individuals—especially younger generations—to engage in cultural conversations surrounding the value of human life and human dignity.

 

Together, they bring powerful stories and bold convictions that are impacting the nation. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear them live as they encourage and equip you to make a difference in your community.

This event is more than an evening with national speakers—it is also a fundraising event that helps TKRL continue its life-saving work throughout the Central Valley. Every program and outreach effort is made possible through the generosity of supporters like you.

TKRL will also share its renewed vision for the future, focused on expanding education, strengthening family support, and equipping the next generation to stand for life with confidence and compassion.
