Gulfport Pride has a mission to “celebrate diversity and promote equality through education, advocacy, and support,” and its annual parade returns this weekend with over 100 vendors, live music and activities in tow.
This year’s free, family-friendly festival will raise money for two local nonprofits, the Sonia Plotnick Women’s Health Fund—which provides financial assistance for women’s healthcare—and the Gulfport Kiwanis Club, a worldwide volunteer organization with a few local chapters.
According to its website, Gulfport Pride has donated over $15,000 to charitable organizations since its 2021 inception. Check out a thicc listing of Pride events happening in June throughout Tampa Bay on cltampa.com.
