We Celebrate Pride for Those Who Could Not and Can Not

By Tristen Yang, Finance Manager at Walgreens

Pride and Pride Month is a month of support and recognition for the LGBTQIA+ community. It celebrates the commitments and continued efforts of past and present members for human rights and equality.

We celebrate Pride for those who could not and can not.

We celebrate Pride because there are places where existing as LGBTQIA+ is still criminalized.

We celebrate Pride to nurture our youth and for the continued education to the world around us.

Pride is important because it empowers love and acceptance within our community, where everyone is encouraged to live authentically without fear of marginalization or victimization.
