RI Pride receives no federal grants, or subsidies but depends primarily on contributions from individuals and businesses through direct giving, sponsorships, and event admissions. No amount of donation is too small. The board and volunteers of RI Pride hope that individuals in Rhode Island and Southern New England will make a donation to support the work being done to promote equal rights, educate the community about GLBT issues, and provide safe opportunities and venues for people to celebrate who they are.
We are going into our third year of the Pride 100 Club (where we are looking for 100 to donate $100) and the President’s Circle (donations of $1000) campaigns are in full swing. New this year we are introducing a new way to make your donation possible by making a pledge.
RI Pride is a not-for profit 501C (3) organization and all contributions are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
