Sponsoring
Night at the Pier

Each year, alongside hundreds of celebrities, activists, and LGBTQ+ families, we honor trailblazing stars of the stage and screen and garner national media attention from outlets like Variety, Playbill, Harper’s Bazaar, and more in the fight for LGBTQ+ equality. By sponsoring this transformative event, you play a vital role in shaping new tomorrows for LGBTQ+ families — and put a spotlight on your brand’s impactful work. Hope starts here, and you’re invited.
