We believe that Pride is more than any single event, it’s a commitment that we make 365 days a year. Contributions to the Pride365 Fund help to provide direct financial support to local community organizations for programs that celebrate and enrich lives of members of the LGBTQ+ community; expand access to programs, events, and activities to ensure inclusivity; and promote events and programs that provide visibility and elevate the voices of the LGBTQ+ community. Please consider becoming a monthly sustainer, starting at just $5, and stand with the LGBTQ+ community 365 days a year. You may also make a one-time donation, create your own fundraising team, or join an existing team. *Contributions are tax deductible to the extent allowed by the law.

The Pride 365 Fund

Established in 2021, the Pride365 Fund is the Capital Pride Alliance’s answer to the ever-increasing need for financial support amongst LGBTQ+ organizations throughout the year. Local LGBTQ+ organizations often lack equitable access to taxpayer funded initiatives, government and private grants, and other important opportunities that enable non-profit organizations to provide critical services to their fullest extent. Facilitated by the Capital Pride Alliance, the Fund awards financial resources to 501(c)(3) organizations that demonstrate a commitment to the LGBTQ+ community 365 days a year.

Become a Fundraising Partner

Non-profit organizations, businesses, and individuals can become a fundraising partner to help raise money for the LGBTQ+ community 365 days a year. From the main GivePride365 fundraising campaign page, select “Start a Fundraiser“, and choose a fundraising option. Options are “Fundraising as a team?” and “Fundraising on your own?”. Once your fundraising page is created, share it through your social media platforms, email lists, and work-of-mouth.
