Each year, alongside hundreds of celebrities, activists, and LGBTQ+ families, we honor trailblazing stars of the stage and screen and garner national media attention from outlets like Variety, Playbill, Harper’s Bazaar, and more in the fight for LGBTQ+ equality. By sponsoring this transformative event, you play a vital role in shaping new tomorrows for LGBTQ+ families — and put a spotlight on your brand’s impactful work.
At our 2023 gala, honorees included Niecy Nash-Betts and Bruce Cohen, with Marisa Tomei presenting and messages from Barack and Michelle Obama, Oprah Winfrey, and Robin Roberts. Our star-studded team included honorary chairs Ban Bucatinsky and Heather Dubrow, and the night featured performances by Esera Tuaolo, Adam Kantor, and Jessica Betts.
