About Us

Mission
Our mission is to create an inclusive community in Madison County with intention and love for the LGBTQ+ community and its allies.
The Future
After 2 successful Prides, Pendleton Pride is excited to partner with Indy Pride to be our fiduciary agency as we work towards obtaining our 501(c)(3).
We are currently working on expanding our operations so we can provide more than just a pride festival to the community.
We hope to be our own 501(c)(3) organization by the end of the year.
History
Conceived in 2020 as a way to bring LGBTQ families in Pendleton and Madison County together in a support group, Pendleton Pride has blossomed into Madison County's primer Pride Festival.
