Celebrate Pride with LYRIC

By Giving List Staff   |   June 12, 2026

For the past four years, LYRIC has kicked off Pride Month with Pride Pour, a celebration of community, resilience, and generosity. This year, LYRIC’s Executive Director, Gael Lala-Chavez, was honored by the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence for their unwavering dedication to LGBTQQ+ youth. 

Pride reminds us that joy and resistance go hand in hand, and that supporting LGBTQQ+ young people is a collective responsibility. As our youth speaker shared, not everyone works directly with youth, but everyone can make a difference through kindness and by investing in organizations like LYRIC.

Honor someone you love this Pride by making a donation to support LGBTQQ+ youth.

LYRIC’s mission is to build community and inspire positive social change through education enhancement, career trainings, health promotion, and leadership development with LGBTQQ youth, their families, and allies of all races, classes, genders, and abilities.

Help Support and Empower LGBTQ+ Youth

Now more than ever, LGBTQ+ youth need adult allies to show up with love, commitment, and action. Together, we can challenge the hateful narratives being pushed, creating space for all young people to see themselves not as “other,” but as empowered, loved individuals with a community of support. 

LYRIC needs $500,000 in unrestricted funding to meet LGBTQ+ youth’s evolving needs in 2026. This investment will grow affirming, wraparound programs, expand virtual access for those beyond San Francisco, and strengthen statewide partnerships to ensure more youth receive the support they deserve, wherever they are.
