Partnering with Pride in the CLE® goes beyond the direct fiscal support of the event. Endearing your organization to Pride helps spread a message of inclusivity and diversity to the community, both internally and externally. Current employees will find a heightened sense of pride in their work while a the same time those seeking safe, affirming spaces for work will know that your organization is committed to creating equal opportunities for all.

Pride also speaks to your organization’s continued commitment to social justice, that all are welcome to seek their own pursuit of success while celebrating their individuality. Being able to march under or see your company’s name listed as a partner send that ultimate message and allows real growth here in our Cleveland community, creating a more harmonious and unified place to call home.

In 2022, we saw a groundswell of harmful attitudes that sought to prohibit fundamental human rights, let alone the advancement of LGBTQ+ individuals across the country. It is our hope that you and your team join us to combat those growing voices of opposition, to stand as one and collectively “SAY GAY,” and to once again march for love and justice at Pride in the CLE®.
