Organizer Tower Grove Pride
Organizer of Pride Care-A-Van
MISSION
At Tower Grove Pride our mission is to build a stronger LGBT community in St. Louis by organizing community members around an annual event that highlights the talents, passions and interests of the LGBT+ community, while promoting acceptance and equality. We are a neighborhood-based grassroots organization that loves St. Louis --it’s people, neighborhoods and small businesses, and wants to show off the LGBT+ community to the broader public through an annual Pride event held in Tower Grove Park and along the South Grand business district.
VISION
We envision a St. Louis in which the LGBT+ community is empowered and united; a city where diversity is cherished and individuality is promoted.
GOALS
1. To continue a Pride tradition in Tower Grove Park;
2. To promote local business, artists and nonprofits that believe in equality and acceptance of the St. Louis LGBT community;
3. To build closer relationships within the St. Louis LGBT+ community and between the LGBT+ community and our allies;
4. To create an environment in which LGBT St. Louisans are empowered, self-reliant, organized and united around building a strong and united LGBT+ community in St. Louis.
