Staff, volunteers, and women from Nellie’s were happy to participate in Pride Week 2011!

The theme this year was Pride – Dream Big and the celebrations certainly lived up to that name. With over 1.2 million people in attendance, this year’s Toronto Pride was one of the largest celebrations in the world!

Nellie’s was proud to join in celebrating the history, courage, diversity, and exciting future of Toronto’s LGBTTIQQ2SA communities (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transsexual, Transgender, Intersex, Queer/Questioning, 2 Spirited, and Allies).

Over 50 of our supporters joined us at the Dyke March on Saturday and over 200 people visited our booth at the Community Fair over the weekend and helped us raise $181 to support our Summer Children’s Programs.

 Nellie’s was proud to participate in Pride 2011 in solidarity with all our LGBTTIQQ2SA staff, supporters, and clients as part of our commitment to achieve social justice for all women.  We look forward to Pride 2012!
