Help Us Keep Pride Free and Thriving in Lancaster

Lancaster Pride is a 100% volunteer-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Every event, resource, and moment of celebration is made possible by your support. As of June 2025, our Pride Festival is free for all, thanks to donations from people like you.

Your gift keeps Lancaster Pride accessible, inclusive, and welcoming, not just during Pride Month, but year-round.
