ALL FUNDS RAISED WILL GO DIRECTLY TO THE HEALTH INITIATIVE!
It occurs to me that between my personal and professional pages that I have over 10,000 friends or followers. If each of you would donate $1, we would meet and exceed our goal this year! ALL funds from the campaign will go directly to The Health Initiative, and will be earmarked for health care needs of the LGBTQ community in Marietta and North Georgia. Thank you in advance.

Dear Friends,
I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who has come out to support our efforts for Marietta Pride 2014 so far. We truly want to celebrate our diversity while raising money for this year’s beneficiary, the Health Initiative. All funds raised will be earmarked for use in our small community and North Georgia. We need your support now more than ever. We are committed to serving the LGBTQ community right here.
I know that dates and events have changed at it has been at the least, confusing. I also want to offer a public apology for these changes, and an explanation. Neither the NGRC board nor I wanted to make these changes, but really didn’t have a choice this year.
Although we only are 20 minutes from Atlanta, we are worlds away. When is the last time you saw a same sex couple holding hands in Marietta? Our local government says one thing, then behind closed doors, does another. They say it’s changed, but it’s not true. The Anti-Gay Resolution adopted in 1993 for Cobb County is still legal, it’s never been rescinded! We are told that they support the LGBTQ community to our face, but do you see a proclamation from the city endorsing any events? Yes, you can have same sex have benefits, you just have to die first. It’s ridiculous!
In the meantime, we are continuing to celebrate Marietta Pride – for the entire Season, even though it’s only on private property…again. I hope this letter answers your many questions and restores some faith in what we are trying to accomplish. I don’t know what we are going to do next, but I can assure you that we are NOT done. Happy 5th Annual Marietta Pride!
Sincerely,
