Prairie Pride Guild of Medicine Hat and District We formed the Prairie Pride Guild of Medicine Hat and District in 2024. Charlie unfortunately passed away in the early 2000s, and Prairie Pride was no more.

We host and/or participate in community events, partner with other community agencies, and educate and support the community to further the Pride movement in Medicine Hat and District. A group of 9 dedicated volunteers, the Prairie Pride Guild pays homage to the very roots of the Pride Movement in Medicine Hat. Started by Charlie Thompson during the AIDS crisis in the 1980s, his organization, "Prairie Pride" brought together q***r leaders in Medicine Hat and fought for inclusion and understanding at a time when equality was far from a reality. The incorporation of this new Guild will give us a fresh start, and an opportunity to do good in our community, while paying respects to our shared history through the name Prairie Pride Guild.

💛💜 INTERSEX AWARENESS DAY — OCTOBER 26 💜💛

Today, we recognize Intersex Awareness Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness, celebrating intersex people, and advocating for understanding, acceptance, and equality. 🏳️‍🌈✨

Today is a reminder that every body is different, every identity deserves respect, and everyone deserves the freedom to live authentically without shame or discrimination.

At Prairie Pride Guild, we believe that education, visibility, and compassion help create a world where everyone feels safe, respected, and accepted for who they are. Let’s challenge misconceptions, listen to intersex voices, and continue building a community where everyone belongs. 🫶

✨WOW!✨ $3916.72 ! That's a LOT of donuts, folx!!

We are so excited to share the results of our recent fundraiser with McBride's Bakery, and want to thank everyone in the community -- and even people as far away as Edmonton (!!!) 🤩 who supported and donated to us. We are a small, grassroots, local not-for-profit, and we rely on donations like this to keep our projects, events and educational programs running all year round. We so appreciate the love and support we received, and special thanks to our own PPG volunteers who made it possible. We were even able to stop by Coats on Finlay and provide the volunteers there with some donuts, to help share the love 🥰 To everyone: keep happy, be yourself, and most of all... thank you!

🌈 HAPPY INTERNATIONAL PRONOUNS DAY! 🌈

Today, Prairie Pride Guild celebrates the importance of pronouns and the power of creating a world where everyone feels seen, respected, and valued for who they are! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

✨ Pronouns are personal. Respect is powerful. Inclusion matters. ✨

Using someone’s correct pronouns is a simple but meaningful way to show kindness, respect, and support. Whether someone uses she/her, he/him, they/them, or another set of pronouns, taking the time to learn and use them correctly can make a real difference.

💡 Not sure what someone’s pronouns are? It’s okay to ask respectfully! You can also introduce yourself with your own pronouns to help create a space where everyone feels comfortable sharing theirs.

Remember, we don’t always know someone’s story, and we don’t need to understand everything about someone to respect who they are. A little effort can go a long way in making our communities safer, kinder, and more inclusive for everyone. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
