Pot of Gold Luncheon to Feature Actor and Activist Victor Rivas Rivers

Rainbow Days is delighted to announce its 28th annual Pot of Gold Luncheon, taking place on Wednesday, May 14, 2025, at the Westin Dallas Galleria. This inspiring event will raise funds to support Rainbow Days’ programs, which provide essential services to at-risk and homeless children across the Dallas community.

The 2025 Pot of Gold Luncheon & Silent Auction will kick off at 11 a.m. with silent auction bidding, followed by the luncheon program starting at 12 p.m. This year’s fundraising goal is $300,000, which will help sustain the vital work Rainbow Days does for thousands of children in need each year. Individual tickets for the luncheon are $250, and table sponsorships begin at $2,500. Both can be purchased online at Pot of Gold Luncheon 2025 | Rainbow Days or by reaching out to Sunni Roaten.

Rainbow Days is thrilled to announce the 2025 Pot of Gold Luncheon keynote speaker is Victor Rivas Rivers. Victor is a veteran star of more than two dozen films, most known for The Distinguished Gentleman, Mask of Zorro, The Hulk and more. Born in Santi Spiritus, Cuba, Victor immigrated to the United States at the age of two. After growing up in an abusive household, he took legal action against his father at age 15 and entered the foster care system. With the help of his community, he turned his life around from hard gang member to earning a senior class football scholarship. Upon graduation he was drafted to play for the Miami Dolphins. Victor continues to raise awareness regarding domestic violence, citing that it is not just a women's issue, but an issue that is relevant to everyone.


Rainbow Days is honored to have Matt and Tiffany Macleod as this year’s Event Chairs. Matt, a retired marine and current Executive Risk Officer at JP Morgan Chase, specializes in cyber security and insider risk. Tiffany, a Dallas/Fort Worth native, is the founder of Elizabeth Scott Design, where she has built a remarkable career in event planning and design. Together, they are dedicated supporters of Rainbow Days’ mission to help children overcome challenges and thrive in the face of adversity.

Rainbow Days is thrilled to have Leticia Espinoza and Jill Sabeh as the 2025 Pot of Gold Luncheon Silent Auction Chairs. Originally, from California, Leticia Espinoza started with Rainbow Days as a volunteer and has continued her services for the last several years.  Leticia’s inspiration to get involved in her community stems from years of watching her mother passionately work as a first grade teacher in the inner city of Denver, Colorado. She reflects that same level of passion in her volunteer work for Rainbow Days, as she serves children the way her mother did before her. Leticia currently lives in Garland, Texas and works as a senior associate for PwC. Jill Sabeh is a seasoned professional with 14 years of experience at PwC, where she has honed their skills in tax depreciation services. Jill is a proud Texas native; sports fan with a particular love of volleyball and soccer. Jill is thrilled to serve as the co-chair for her first Rainbow Days silent Auction.

The Pot of Gold Luncheon is a meaningful and celebratory event that supports Rainbow Days’ programs through ticket sales, sponsorships, donations, and auction proceeds. Attendees will enjoy an uplifting program, which includes a motivational keynote address, performances by Rainbow Days children, and inspiring testimonials. With over 500 guests expected, the Silent Auction will feature more than $100,000 in exciting items and will open for online bidding on Monday, May 5, 2025.
