Respect The Dolls Campaign
Blue Ridge Pride has been a pillar of advocacy, celebration, education, and service to the LGBTQIA2S+ community of WNC for the past 16 years. We have faced many challenges together and our commitment to the queer community remains the same. Trans people are under attack, and we are standing strong alongside our trans and gender nonconforming friends and neighbors.
Our goal is to raise $100,000 by the 2026 Festival:
$50K will directly benefit local transfeminine people facing workplace and housing discrimination through microgrants and stipends
$50K will be used to provide accessible mental health services, anti-discrimination workplace trainings, and to continue our grassroots advocacy
