When available, excess funds raised for the Rochester Pride Parade & Festival are used to support LGBTQ+ events and programming throughout the Rochester area.
Every year, funds raised for the Rochester Pride Parade & Festival go into a restricted fund to pay for the two events. If there is a balance in the fund after all the expenditures are met, organizations may apply for a portion of the funding to support LGBTQ+ events and programming throughout the Rochester area.
We will be accepting grant applications in 2023. We seek to fund current and future events and programs to support the emotional, psychological, and social well-being of LGBTQ+ communities.
