CAN YOU HELP ON PRIDE WEEKEND?:

Pride Weekend: Pink Saturday (evening) and Pride Day: CSC will receive between $75-125 in grant funds from the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence and SF Pride for every person we sent” to help out these two community events. Plus— it’s a great chance to smile at cute people, look festive, and represent CSC and SF to tourist and locals alike. This is a great opportunity to help out at these to help raise funds for CSC, plus you can bring friends who don’t know much about us, because it is basically donation-soliciting and welcome-to-Pride work.

• Afternoon/Evening: 3pm - 8:30pm
• Later Evening: 6-11pm
