Volunteers needed!

We’re getting ready for our Leaf Raking fundraiser, and we need you!

Sign up for a shift, and once we get 4 or so people on each shift, we’ll make it available for reservation in our online store. When it’s reserved, we’ll let you know, and see you there! The residents will provide yard waste bags and some may have rakes, but bring a rake if you have one just to be safe. Last year was lots of fun!

We hope to make this year’s fundraiser as successful as possible; all proceeds benefit Aurora Pride, including, hopefully, the 2022 Aurora Pride Parade!!!

Sign up here!

Pride Drive, and new merch!

Announcing the 2021 Aurora Pride Drive!

Sign up here for the June 13th Aurora Pride Drive! Last year’s hugely successful event is back for 2021. Decorate your home, business, or place of worship, and celebrate Aurora’s LGBTQ+ community with us! Decorate your vehicle, and tour the route past Aurora’s most exuberantly decorated locations! If you choose to submit a photo of your decor, you’ll be entered in the voting for a special prize!

Like last year, this event will allow us to gather in a safe, socially distant way, as well as providing donation boxes for non-perishable food items benefiting Aurora Area Interfaith Food Pantry.

Also, there are new buttons, stickers, and car magnets in the merch store! Check them out!

Due to COVID-19, we’re still not able to host the Aurora Pride Parade for 2021. Hopefully, if enough people keep wearing masks, practicing social distancing, and getting vaccinated, we can bring it back next year. However, we are still in discussions with the City of Aurora, and hope to bring you at least one event in partnership with them, so STAY TUNED for that and other Pride Month events!

As always, if you’re able, and would like to help us fund this year’s activities, as well as those for future years, please donate here or contact aurorapridemarketing@gmail.com to become a sponsor.
