Fernie Pride Society

Published purpose

This 12-month project will strengthen the capacity and networks of the Fernie Pride Society to advance LGBTQ2 equality. This will be achieved by building the organization's financial health, developing tools and resources and then training volunteers and partners in their use, and holding a 2SLGBTQ+ conference in the Columbia Basin for partner organizations and 2SLGBTQ+ community members in the region. By the end of the project, the organization will have created a fundraising strategy and plans, tools, and resources on funding diversification, stakeholder engagement, and financial sustainability in order to support 2SLGBTQ+ organizations in the region. It will also have created a strong network of regional organizations to share knowledge and exist safely in a collaborative space.
