U of L Pride Alumni Council

 

Established in 2014, the mission of the UofL Pride Alumni Council is to enrich the lives of LGBT students, alumni, their families and allies through social events, educational programs and scholarships.  The network works in collaboration with other alumni groups and the university's Alumni Association.  

There are many ways to be involved! Opportunities for engagement include:

·         Council Leadership

·         Fund Development

·         Marketing and Promotions

  • Funding the Brian Buford Endowed Alumni LGBTQ Scholarship
  • Hosting the annual Pre-Pink Cocktail Party and Signature Event
  • Sponsoring study breaks during finals week, providing coffee and donuts to students
  • Hosting Alternative Thanksgiving, ensuring students have a safe and affirming space to celebrate the holiday
  • Sponsoring UofL's Lavender Graduation Celebration, and presenting rainbow chords to each graduate
  • Marching in the annual Kentuckiana Pride Parade
  • Partnering with the LGBT Center to host Cardinal OUTlook Day for prospective LGBTQ+ high school students.
