Pride Gives Back & Community Grants

Heritage of Pride gives back to the community by offering a multitude of unique grant opportunities for various organizations
Pride Gives Back

NYC Pride's Pride Gives Back grant program is focused on financially assisting non-profit and community organizations within the local New York metro area looking to create programs/events in the 2023-24 Pride season. Since 1984, NYC Pride has given more than $25 Million in grants to individuals and non profits through our grant programs. See full details of the Pride Gives Back Program →

Community Grants


Every year, NYC Pride awards thousands of dollars in grant money to LGBTQIA-friendly and LGBTQIA-affirming organizations. The grants are working grants, which means that in order to receive the grant money, members or volunteers from your organization must perform specific functions, as a group, at our NYC Pride events. Grants are awarded in amounts from $750 to $2,500, depending on the commitment.
