Volunteer with the Louisville Pride Foundation

The Louisville Pride Foundation celebrates the LGBTQ+ community and advances equity and representation for all people.

We cannot accomplish our mission without the help of a large and diverse group of volunteers. We believe that including volunteers in a meaningful way in the work that we do strengthens our organization and our community and provides benefit to the volunteer as well.

We have needs that last for one day or the entire year, and we have needs that range from doing a simple task to leading a challenging project. We believe that service and community engagement benefit everyone involved, and we are committed to accommodating and including volunteers of various abilities and backgrounds.

Center Volunteers assist with running the Louisville Pride Center by working a regularly scheduled shift. Examples of work: answering the phone; greeting and directing visitors; setting up tables and chairs for an event; providing administrative support; stuffing envelopes; making phone calls; restocking and cleaning kitchen.
