Join the race.

The Indy Pride 500 is a bold, community-powered fundraising campaign inspired by the spirit and energy of Indianapolis. Our goal is simple but impactful: 500 small businesses, organizations, and individuals contributing $500 each to collectively raise $250,000 in support of Indy Pride’s year-round programs, events, advocacy, and community initiatives.

This initiative creates an accessible entry point for our community to visibly and proudly stand with the LGBTQ+ community. This is more than a sponsorship campaign — it is participation in a movement rooted in visibility, belonging, and collective investment in the future of Indy Pride.

Our long-term vision is for the Indy Pride 500 to collectively serve as the Presenting Sponsor of Indy Pride Festival 2027 and every year beyond.

As a special launch incentive, any organization, business, or individual who joins the Indy Pride 500 by May 30, 2026 will receive recognition and visibility tied to both Indy Pride Festival 2026 and Indy Pride Festival 2027. This is a one-time founding campaign opportunity as we officially kick off the movement and race toward 2027!

Fuel our future. Drive Pride forward
