Help Keep Disability Community Events Free

 In addition to welcoming optional donations, we invite individuals and organizations to help build public support for keeping disability community events free and accessible.

Thank you for helping keep the Disability Pride NYC Parade free and accessible for our community.

 Donations are entirely optional and sincerely appreciated. Your support helps us keep the Disability Pride NYC Parade free, accessible, and open to everyone. 

 In past years, City support helped cover a significant portion of the Parade’s costs. That level of City funding is no longer available, and the Parade now relies more heavily on financial and in-kind contributions.

We invite organizations, corporations, businesses, and sponsors = to contribute at a level that is meaningful and manageable for them. Contributions can be financial or in-kind, including goods, services, equipment, food and water, printing, accessibility services and accomodations, professional expertise, and other resources needed for the Parade.

Every contribution helps us keep the Parade free, accessible, and open to all.
