Help Us Build a Vineyard
We are seeking volunteers to help launch the vineyard at the ranch.
It won’t take too long! Volunteer for 3 hours outside and help us set up the trellises. In March, we’ll return to plant the vines. We’ll learn about grapes, wine, sustainable agriculture, and more!

Lee and Toni Leichtag established the Leichtag Foundation in 1991 following the sale of their business. Lee and Toni were lifelong entrepreneurs with a passion for innovation and for supporting talent. They believed that only with big risk comes big reward.

While they supported many causes, their strongest support was for young children and the elderly, two demographics who particularly lack voice in our society.

You would think that as the executive director of San Diego LGBT Pride, Fernando Zweifach López Jr., who uses the pronoun they, has done all the coming out they possibly can.
