Donate $1 at the Gate!
Support your community, donate $1 at the gate!
San Francisco Pride has distributed over $2.5 million dollars to our Community Partners since 1997 – thanks to beverage purchases and donations made at our event gates. Community organizations provide SF Pride with volunteers the weekend of the event, and, in return, Pride awards the organizations with proceeds from the area of their involvement.

Eligibility & Requirements
The Community Partners Program is open to any 501c3 certified non-profit organization based in the nine counties of the Bay Area whose mission involves service to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender communities, seniors, youth, bullying, housing advocacy, animal welfare/rights, people living with HIV/AIDS, cancer, or homelessness.
All community partners must commit to a minimum number of volunteers for working at the SF Pride event. The minimum requirement depends on the area for which the partner has been selected and varies from 6 to 12. All volunteers must attend volunteer trainings (number of meetings, dates and times to be set by Donations/Beverages management). Volunteer numbers may vary by area so be sure to check with your area coordinator during pre-event trainings.
