Pride Month 2024

June is here and this year, #ItsGivingPride. You can help support Seattle’s LGBTQ+ Center’s work, like HIV/STI Testing, resource referrals, the youth drop-in space, and more all month long, in a variety of ways! Consider setting up your own fundraiser, shopping at or supporting a business running a promotion that benefits the Center, or donating directly.

How Businesses Can Give Back This Pride Month

Rainbow capitalism can undermine Queer liberation by turning people’s attention towards consumerism rather than meaningful change. Avoid platitudes this Pride month and consider donating a percentage of your profits to a charity or cause, like Seattle’s LGBTQ+ Center, even if it’s just a promotion on a single item or on a single day. Businesses support us in providing free health services to LGBTQ+ community members, access to resources, programs for LGBTQ+ young people, and so much more. In exchange, we’ll share info about your promotion through our website and media channels, and thank you as a Pride sponsor (thanks so much to our 2022 sponsors!). We truly appreciate your support!

Of course, one-time gifts are always much appreciated!
