Pride PEI Inc.

Published purpose

Through this 40-month project, Pride PEI will build stronger capacity of 2SLGBTQIA+ community organizations and networks to advance 2SLGBTQIA+ equality. It will address and meet the needs of their local community by aiming to better define the role of Pride PEI and invest in the tools needed to strengthen its board and governance procedures. It will also support efforts to address its financial capacity and sustainability, and of other queer serving organizations. The project will include the development and implementation of Pride PEI’s first strategic plan, work to expand their governance and operational manuals, policies, and procedures. It will also provide support to other queer serving organizations in their advocacy initiatives. This collaborative effort will focus on resource sharing among organizations to offer a reliable and equitable flow of resources to strengthen partner organizations, which will foster sustainability and collective growth in the community. With the supplemental funds and extension provided in early 2026, Pride PEI will develop and finalize a Financial Resilience and Revenue Diversification Plan, assess revenue generating and partnership opportunities, and complete an equity audit to guide the integration of an Anti-Racism and Anti Oppression Framework across its governance, volunteer, and partnership systems. Through this work they will further advance Gender Equality.
