2025 Beneficiaries

Funds raised from this event support LGBTQ+ organizations and initiatives that positively impact the community. The following organizations will receive 100% of net proceeds earned from Pride AF.

Shepherd Wellness Community is unique in the region for the personal and non-clinical support we provide. HIV positive people living in the 11 county region of southwestern Pennsylvania find hope and help through programs offered at our center.

Proud Haven’s mission is to provide a safe shelter for LGBTQIA+ youth (ages 18-25) experiencing homelessness in Pittsburgh. We also provide emotional support and resources to help LGBTQIA+ youth develop the skills needed to live independently.

Established in 2015, TransYOUniting creates an environment where black transgender women and other transgender individuals can thrive. Our comprehensive approach includes initiatives such as housing, workforce development, advocacy, and mutual aid.
