Sponsorship Guidelines
Cincinnati Pride, Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization committed to advancing the mission of inspiring, educating, and commemorating the rich history and diverse culture of the LGBTQ+ community. Through our programs and partnerships, we aim to foster collaboration with local organizations and businesses, provide resources, and make a positive impact on the lives of all individuals—regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, or expression.
Cincinnati Pride is dedicated to doing what is best for our community and allies. By partnering with organizations that share our commitment to inclusion, we aim to enhance the visibility and impact of our work. We ask that all prospective sponsors demonstrate transparency in their values and show their commitment to supporting LGBTQ+ rights and initiatives through both policy and action.
To ensure alignment with our values and mission, Cincinnati Pride prioritizes financial support from organizations that share our commitment to supporting the LGBTQ+ community. Effective for 2025, Cincinnati Pride seeks partnerships with organizations that are committed to honor and celebrate LGBTQIA+ voices. These organizations should understand the positive influence of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace and society. In support of this, we may request a copy of an organization’s LGBTQIA+ Non-Discrimination Policy.
We reserve the right to reject sponsorships from any organization that does not align with the mission of Cincinnati Pride
Note: These criteria apply to the organization with which we enter into a partnership and not to their clients (e.g., a law firm’s clients) or investments (e.g., a bank providing a loan to a third-party company). We cannot take a stance on these third parties, as they are numerous and often confidential.
