Help Us Make Pride Happen
|
Since 1970 Boston Pride has celebrated the successes and the struggles of the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community in New England and around the world.
We honor the courage of those who took to the streets at Stonewall in 1969, the joy of the first same-sex couples in the US to legally say, "I do" five years ago, and those who lost their lives last year at a Knoxville, Tenn. church for daring to post a "Gays Welcome" sign above their door. Boston Pride reminds us all, "you are not alone."
Boston Pride invites you to help us in being a part of making it happen. Become an individual sponsor of Boston Pride and receive benefits including passes to Boston Pride Block Parties, recognition on our web site, souvenirs and even name recognition from the stage at the Boston Pride Festival. Giving opportunities range from $50 to $1,000.
