Join Our Community of Sustainers

Pride in Action is Pride Foundation’s new three-year capacity-building campaign, inviting you to invest in lasting change for LGBTQ+ communities across Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington.

In recent years, LGBTQ+ organizations across the Northwest have faced increasing instability, escalating attacks on our rights, and shrinking philanthropic support. Pride in Action is our response — not just to the challenges of today, but to the ongoing need for long-term stability and care in our movement.

With an ambitious goal to raise $5 million over the next three years, Pride in Action will provide the steady, flexible resources needed to: 

  • Fund grassroots organizations through multi-year grants 
  • Expand scholarships and leadership opportunities for LGBTQ+ students
  • Support advocates and organizers working in hostile environments 
  • Strengthen regional safety, resilience, and connection

Join Pride in Action by making a sustaining gift today!

How it Works

Joining Pride in Action is one of the most impactful ways to support LGBTQ+ communities in the Northwest. Sustainers give consistently — monthly or annually — so Pride Foundation can provide reliable, long-term funding to those doing the most vital work across our region. 

There are two ways to join: 

  • Make a recurring monthly gift of any amount. 
  • Pledge an annual donation of $1,000 or more for three years. 

Every gift matters. Every commitment builds the foundation our communities can count on. 

 

“It’s my hope that we can change the places we live — even a state like Idaho, and that instead of being crashed by waves of hateful legislation against the rocks of an indifferent culture, our most vulnerable siblings experience love, joy, support, and abundance wherever they choose to live.”

Lora Volkert, Board Member and Pride in Action Sustainer

"We’re not here just to survive the moment. We’re here to fortify the future."

Helen Stillman, Assistant Director of Community Engagement

Why Sustained Giving Matters

Pride in Action is more than a sustainer program: it’s a capacity-building campaign designed to ensure Pride Foundation can meet this moment and whatever lies ahead. It’s how we turn solidarity into sustainability, and action into lasting impact.

At Pride Foundation, we believe in regeneration and sustainability as one of our guiding values: our work is rooted in the wisdom of those who came before us and focused on sustaining our communities into thriving futures. Through this campaign, we’re investing in the long-term capacity of our movement, ensuring we can respond to crises when they happen while also resourcing the steady, everyday work that keeps our communities safe, connected, and thriving.
