NWPA Pride Alliance is grateful to all our 2021 donors who supported us during another challenging year. For the second year in a row, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we joined forces with the Erie Playhouse and other local partners in Erie County to host a Virtual Pride celebration. We sincerely hope to change that in 2022. All of us cannot wait to be back in Perry Square, and our goal is to do just that in the upcoming year, providing it is safe to do so according to local and federal guidance. While we cannot wait to have a huge celebration of Pride again, we will continue to monitor all our options for an in-person event. Mark your calendars now: we will be hosting Pride on Saturday, June 25th, 2022, followed by the Drive Your Pride parade on Saturday, June 26, 2022.
No matter what an in-person event looks like next year, we hope we can count on your support for this 2022 Pride season. Tax deductible contributions from individuals and organizations in our community continue to further the mission of NWPA Pride Alliance: Improving the visibility of the LGBTQIA community and facilitating communication and collaboration between groups and individuals. Thanks to your generosity, we are able to organize, sponsor, and host events such as the annual Pride Festival and the Pride Picnic. We also participate in various community events to promote awareness of LGBTQIA issues as well as support the efforts and activities of other groups dedicated to the health and well-being of the LGBTQIA community.
See the table below for detail on donor/sponsor options. For those who have been a donor in the past, we are pleased to announce we've expanded our donor levels! Although NWPA Pride Alliance welcomes donations throughout the year, in order to be included on promotional materials for this year's Pride events, please have your donation in by Wednesday, June 1st.
