Next Friday, September 25th, we’re teaming up again with Chattanooga Pride Food Coalition to pack and distribute free food to families across the Tennessee Valley. We need hands. 🙌

Pick a window that works for you:
9am-12pm at La Paz Chattanooga
12pm-2pm at Chattanooga Free Store
5pm-7pm at ELLA Library

Heads up, this is physical work. You’ll be packing boxes and handing out food, lifting up to 10 lbs, and shifts are outdoors so wear sunscreen, throw on a hat, and bring water.

A few hours of your Friday turns into real food on real tables for families in our community. No experience needed, just a willingness to show up.

Andddddd that’s just the beginning.
Throughout June we’ll also be hosting q***r community storytelling, a Pride T-Shirt Design Contest where the winning design will be printed for Pride in October, a cozy q***r lock in complete with film screenings, pajamas, popcorn, and sleepover vibes, & a summer clothing swap. Plus, we’ll be joining friends for a few special Pride Month collaborations and celebrations along the way! 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Pride Month is a chance to connect, build relationships, plug in to things happening in the community and spend time with folks. ✨ the horrors persist and so do we ✨
