Pride Brunch

In June 2026, we raised a glass to 25 years of Growing Together: An LGBTQ+ Fund at Pride Brunch 2026! We celebrated at the beautiful Chapman Estate for brunch as we honored the history, resilience, and leadership of LGBTQIA+ people in our region.

This anniversary event celebrated what Growing Together has helped make possible over the past 25 years while raising support for what comes next. The Fund continues to advance the safety, wellbeing, visibility, and belonging of LGBTQIA+ people across San Luis Obispo County through local grants, youth support, and community programs.
