About Us
The Augusta Pride Committee is incorporated as Augusta Pride, Inc.
a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization comprised of dedicated volunteers. There are no paid staff. Our most recent federal tax returns (Form 990) are public information and may be viewed at foundationcenter.org
The Primary Mission of Augusta Pride is to promote visibility and pride and to provide cultural unity and diversity education for the Lesbian. Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning and Ally (LGBTQA) communities of the Central Savannah River Area (CSRA). A Secondary Mission is to initiate and support efforts to raise awareness of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases in the LGBTQA community of the CSRA and to contribute to efforts to provide resources in support of those living with HIV. Augusta Pride produces public events each year to advance this mission.
