About Louisville Pride Foundation

The Louisville Pride Foundation is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization dedicated to celebrating the LGBTQ+ community and advancing equity and representation for all people in Louisville, KY. As a comprehensive community resource, the foundation operates multiple programs and services designed to foster inclusion and create meaningful change. The organization produces the annual Louisville Pride Festival, a free community celebration held each September on Bardstown Road that draws thousands of participants from across the region. Beyond the festival, the Louisville Pride Foundation manages the Louisville Pride Center, a full-service LGBTQ community center located in Old Louisville that serves as an accessible hub for all community members regardless of their ability to pay. The Pride Center hosts diverse programming including game nights, film screenings, community dinners, book clubs, support groups, and educational workshops. For organizations and individuals committed to LGBTQ advocacy, the foundation provides co-working space, administrative and technical support, professional development opportunities, and networking resources. The Louisville Pride Foundation's comprehensive approach addresses both immediate community needs and long-term systemic change, with particular emphasis on harm reduction, food security, BIPOC inclusion, and health education. Under current leadership, the foundation has expanded operational hours, programming capacity, and accessibility features to better serve Louisville's diverse LGBTQ population and their allies.
