Lancaster County Chooses Love A grassroots LGBTQIA+ mutual aid support organization serving the Lancaster County community Care to join us? The prerequisite is simple: choose love.

At Lancaster County Chooses Love, our goal is as simple as our name. We want to inspire our neighbors to choose love, to understand that an inclusive community is a thriving community. To accomplish that, we combine our pride of place with our PRIDE because love is love is love and we love Lititz. Our inaugural event brought "A Day Out" to downtown Lititz, followed by a powerful listening session at the middle school. Events like these, where community members from all walks of life are welcomed to listen and to learn are our staple. Our mission is to create safe social spaces and connect LGBTQ+ community members with resources. Follow along to learn about hikes, game nights, our affirming closet, our library, book club and more.

What an amazing night! 🪩❤️

Our 2026 Adult Homecoming was full of dancing, laughter, connection, and lots of love. We had such a great time celebrating with everyone!

Thank you to everyone who dressed up and joined us on Saturday night! It meant so much to see familiar faces, meet new friends, and watch our community come together. You made the night special, and we’re so grateful you were there.

But more than just having fun, we gathered to raise funds for LGBTQ+ programs and resources in Lancaster County. Your support helps us keep building spaces where our community can connect, feel supported, and be themselves.

We also want to give a big thank you to the amazing sponsors who made this night possible:

❤️ Bayer
❤️ Luxe Salon & Spa Lancaster PA’s premier Salon & Spa
❤️ Shifted Focus Photography | Lancaster + Central PA Photographer
❤️ Michelle & Jackson Liu

Thank you to our amazing volunteers and team members who worked behind the scenes to make everything happen. We truly couldn’t have done it without your time, energy, and care.

We’re still smiling as we think back on the night. Enjoy some of our favorite moments, and thank you for choosing love with us. 🌈

Adult Homecoming 2026 is almost here, and there are still a few ways to be part of it. 🪩💖

Our Silent Auction is open to everyone, whether or not you’ll be at Adult Homecoming. You’re welcome to bid on local treats, experiences, self-care, and more, or support a Fund-a-Need item that helps us care for our community in real and meaningful ways.

If bidding isn’t your thing, you can still support by making a donation through the Adult Homecoming event page. Every gift, big or small, helps us keep showing up for each other.

Adult Homecoming is more than just a party. It’s one of our biggest moments outside of Pride to come together and raise the funds that make our year-round programs, resources, and community care possible.

And if you’ve been thinking about joining us in person, this is your last call to grab tickets.

Bid, give, or celebrate with us. Every bit of support helps us keep showing up for LGBTQ+ people across Lancaster County.

There is still time to sign up for the silent auction! If you tried to sign up yesterday evening, we had a glitch in our system that said tickets were sold out. We fixed it, so you should be able to sign up now!

We also still have just a few tickets left for the event, so if you're still looking for something fun to do this weekend, you can join us!

Remember that all the money we raise from this event helps to support our year-round programs for LGBTQ+ folks!
