'Can't Cancel Pride' is about creating visibility for the LGBTQ+ community and showing them they are not alone. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains heightened for LGBTQ+ people, who continue to face issues driven by persistent bias, intolerance and inequality. The event is being held to help bring much-needed resources, support, acts of good and love to this remarkable and resilient community.

As per Variety, 'Can't Cancel Pride' will once again partner with Greater Cincinnati Foundation to administer and distribute financial support raised by the event to LGBTQ+ organizations with a track record of positive impact and support of the LGBTQ+ community including GLAAD, SAGE, The Trevor Project, the National Black Justice Coalition, CenterLink, and OutRight Action International. The event will kick off a month-long Pride celebration throughout June.
