Your business can impact Austin's LGBTQIA+ community at the first-ever COLORS OF PRIDE FESTIVAL on June 25, 2022, in Mueller Park!
Colors of Pride Festival celebrates all LGBTQIA+ people of color, our diverse heritages and traditions, and contributions to our community. This opportunity for LGBTQIA+ people of color to make more friends, connect with resources, and feel like valued members of the community will improve their health and happiness.
Greater Austin has the nation's 3rd largest LGBTQIA+ population, per capita, half of whom are people of color.
Using this website, your company can partner with a local LGBTQIA+ charity to create a brand activation promoting their work - like what you might see at SXSW!
(See examples)
Volunteers from the Austin chapter of the American Institute of Architects will help design and build the activation you sponsor.
Your company will also build positive emotional relationships between your company and Greater Austin's LGBTQIA+ community.
And your employees will have fun volunteering to staff the activation!
(Tinder's Pride Slide raised $15,000 for Human Rights Campaign at NYC Pride.)
