Support

For Individuals

Thank you for your interest in supporting Keweenaw Pridefest 2024! 

We are incredibly thankful for the amount of support we received last year. More than 250+ individuals attended! In 2023, we were able to host live bands, 17 non-commercial community organizations tabling, and a photobooth. A bit more than our original 50-person headcount!

Keweenaw Pridefest has grown rapidly, and we want to aim higher. The Keweenaw Queers have now incorporated as an educational non-profit.

Our final budget is $5,000, which covers A/V music coordination, compensation for 4 local bands, a photographer, refreshments, community outreach opportunities for local business and organizations, tables, and other equipment.

In addition to the gofundme, you can directly donate via Zelle, Check, or Cash at our upcoming fundraiser events. Please reach out to keweenawqueers@gmail.com

For Businesses

If you are a business interested in directly sponsoring the event please reach out to keweenawqueers@gmail.com for our informational packet! Sponsorship comes with several benefits such as social media appreciation posts, being featured on our banner and of course supporting the cause.

Keweenaw Pridefest is hosted by The Keweenaw Queers, a domestic non-profit. We are formed with the sole purpose of not for profit educational LGBTQIA+ events, materials and support. We have not (yet) been approved for 501c3 tax exempt status.
