We can’t do all this without our LGBTQ+ community pitching in to help. We will need volunteers to help us on committees such as: Sponsorships and Fundraising, Volunteers and Operations, Vendor Coordination, Marketing and Communications and more. Prior experience in these areas is good but not required – we will teach you!
