Sponsor the Greater Lowell PRIDE Month Celebration! 

This year's programming has expanded from a one-day event to a full month of activities - giving your business, organization or group many opportunities to amplify your support of the LGBTQ community. 

Why is the PRIDE Month Celebration important?

 Despite undeniable advancements for LGBTQ equality, the statistics relating to LGBTQ youth and homelessness, suicidality, risk behaviors and dropout rates are worsening. The Greater Lowell PRIDE Month Celebration is a grand opportunity to bring visibility to the LGBTQ community and, through the participation and contributions of local businesses, organizations and groups, demonstrate a unified message of appreciation and celebration of human diversity - which in turn works to create safer, healthier schools and communities.

Thank you for your support!
