Twin Cities Pride

Support LGBTQIA+ Youth and Help Us Expand Youth Night!

This year, we launched our very first Twin Cities Pride Youth Night, a dedicated evening for LGBTQ+ youth and allies to experience the joy and community of Pride. Over 2,000 youth attended, many of whom were attending their first-ever Pride event. With your support, we can build on this success, reach even more young people, and provide essential resources and programming that empower our youth to feel seen, supported, and celebrated.

Why Your Gift Matters:

The funds we raise this Give to the Max Day will go directly toward creating safe and inclusive spaces where young people can be authentically themselves. At Youth Night, we provided free food, ice cream, snacks, and drinks and featured 15+ youth-serving organizations offering free activities and valuable resources. Our Rainbow Wardrobe also provided gender-affirming clothing and undergarments, making it a truly affirming space for everyone.

Most importantly, Youth Night connected LGBTQ+ youth who might feel isolated in their day-to-day lives, especially those from rural areas or small communities. For one special evening, they experienced the strength of community, made new friends, and saw firsthand that they belong.

Your Gift Supports:

• Expanded Youth Programming: More events and safe spaces for LGBTQ+ youth
• Accessible Resources: Partnering with organizations to provide free support and materials
• Community-Building: Fostering connections among LGBTQ+ youth, regardless of where they live

Let’s show our youth that they are valued, loved, and have a community that stands behind them. Together, we can create a world where LGBTQ+ young people feel empowered, celebrated, and safe.

Thank you for supporting the next generation of Pride.
