Pride St. Louis and The Urban League Announce Partnership

Pride St. Louis and The Urban League of Metropolitan St. Louis (St. Louis, MO) have entered into a strategic partnership that provides much needed food supplies to the St. Louis LGBTQIA community. This agreement brings together two nonprofit organizations that serve their respective communities with programs and events that empowers and educates its members.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic many members of the St. Louis LGBTQIA community have either had a significant decrease of their income or have lost their jobs creating a struggle for even the basic needs of food.

This partnership will further enhance Pride St. Louis’s Feed the Community Program with additional food supplies and possible collaborations in the near future. Michael P. McMillan, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Urban League, states “The Urban League is proud to partner with Pride STL to aid members of the LGBTQIA community that have been negatively impacted by this pandemic. Food insecurity along with economic uncertainty continue to be major issues throughout our region devastating countless individuals and families. We must all work together to help those in need at this critical moment.”
