Why Become a Sponsor?

Make a Tangible Difference.

Sponsoring the Out on Front Together Gala isn’t just about having your name in a program or on a website—it’s about creating real, lasting change for the LGBTQ+ community in the Cape Fear region. Your sponsorship is an investment in people, in futures, and in the strength of our community.

When you sponsor, you’re making a direct impact. Here’s how:

Expanding LGBTQ+ Support Services

Many LGBTQ+ individuals, especially youth and elders, face isolation, discrimination, and a lack of resources. Your sponsorship helps provide mental health support, emergency assistance, and safe spaces for those who need it most.

Providing Educational & Advocacy Programs

Your support fuels workshops, panels, and training sessions that educate the public, businesses, and institutions on LGBTQ+ issues, inclusivity, and allyship. These programs help create a more accepting and equitable world for everyone.

Creating Safe & Inclusive Social Spaces

Many LGBTQ+ individuals in our community don’t have affirming spaces to gather, celebrate, and be themselves. Your sponsorship helps fund cultural events, social programs, and inclusive gatherings that foster connection, empowerment, and joy.

Supporting LGBTQ+ Youth & Families

LGBTQ+ youth are at a higher risk for homelessness, bullying, and mental health struggles. Your sponsorship helps provide youth mentoring programs, scholarships, and leadership opportunities to ensure they feel seen, supported, and empowered.

Ensuring LGBTQ+ Elders Are Not Forgotten

LGBTQ+ elders often face unique challenges—from lack of inclusive healthcare to social isolation. Your sponsorship supports programs tailored to LGBTQ+ seniors, ensuring they receive the respect, care, and community they deserve.

Strengthening Local Businesses & Allyship

Sponsoring this event aligns your brand with diversity, equity, and inclusion—values that today’s consumers and employees prioritize. By taking a stand as an ally, you’re showing your customers, employees, and the greater community that you support LGBTQ+ rights and equality.

Your Sponsorship is More Than Just a Contribution—It’s a Statement.

By sponsoring this event, you’re standing in solidarity with the LGBTQ+ community. You’re telling LGBTQ+ individuals in Cape Fear that they are valued, they are supported, and they belong.

Be part of something bigger. Together, we are shaping a stronger, safer, and more inclusive future for the LGBTQ+ community.
