We’re Here, Together

GenPride is building an LGBTQIA+ senior community center on the ground floor of Pride Place, a 118-unit affordable housing building focused on low-income LGBTQIA+ seniors. Our capital campaign seeks to raise $4.7M from individual and institutional donors to support the purchase and build out of the 4,400 sq ft community space, the first of its kind in our community, and the first permanent home for GenPride’s mission.

Funds raised through the campaign will support construction of a brand-new community and health services center and a transitional fund to prepare the center for the future.

By supporting GenPride’s campaign, you can bring our community one step closer to having a place we can be our whole selves and celebrate our values, our history, and our pride.

GenPride is a 501c3 nonprofit organization. Your contribution is tax deductible to the extent allowed by law. EIN #: 47-5593899

01. Grab a copy

This sounded a very good reason, and Alice was quite pleased to know it. 'I never thought

06. Enjoy your site

The special thing about headaches is that by outward appearance, you may not appear to suffer from any disease.

I was always somebody who felt quite sorry for myself, what I had not got compared to my friends, how much of a struggle .

02. Design your page

We use eggs in so many recipes. They are a staple in the kitchen.
