Donate
Donations are important to our efforts to bring events like this to you. It has been a hard year, so we have some donation causes for you to consider. We also have a fund donation vote contest, where you can vote for the best event of the weekend with your dollars. Check out these options on our donation page.
Please note that our Vote for the Best event option does not open till 6pm on June 13th and closes at 2pm on June 15th
Causes
This year Pride Community brings the option to donate for one of the causes that support our efforts. This is a way to associate your name/donation with something we are passionate about. In particular, check out “Strut your Texas Queerness”. This particular cause is set up as a way to vote with your donation for your favorite event of Brazos Valley Pride Weekend
This year the Texas Legislature has slammed our community hard, specifically our transgender siblings. On top of the national rhetoric, we are all feeling hopeless, attacked, and burned out. The way forward is together. Help detox the atmosphere make being a queer Texan something to be proud of. Donate for this cause to help us change the paradigm by all of us just being us
Putting on Pride Weekend events in the Brazos Valley requires a team of highly dedicated planners, partners who give of their space for us to celebrate within, and funds to bring entertainment and help support the events themselves. Give today to support Brazos Valley Pride Weekend 2025
So, you are attending Pride at the home of Texas A&M University? That little college town that could. Which event this weekend was the most queer.
Sponsor
We couldn’t do this weekend without the support of the venues that are patronized and sponsorships from the community to put the event on. Whether it is you yourself or you and a group of friends, we need sponsors for this weekend of events. Please check out our sponsorship levels by clicking the image below
Volunteer with us
As always, we need volunteers. These days in conjunction with Father’s Day we are asking for Dad volunteers to give free Dad Hugs. This is an empowering way for young and old to know that they are valued here in their own home and that despite what is going on in the world, these Dads have your back. Please note, Mom Hugs are welcome too. We are focusing on Dad hugs due to the holiday and because often there are Mom Hugs groups already at our events. We are very thankful to our partner Mom Hugs groups.
Besides Dad Hugs, we need help at events with setup, cleanup, and hospitality.
Please volunteer through this LINK. Which will take you to the volunteer page on our website for this weekend of activities.
