We invite you to stay awhile and find a place, person, or story you connect with. We conceive that history is not a thing of the past - it is a living lesson that brings relevance to people of today. Spokane Pride cultivates the Queer History project to not only share the history that brought strength to us building an infrastructure for community, collaboration, and connection but to share his story - her story - their story. When you find a story, we encourage you to use the inspiration to engage in your inquiry and learning.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 94% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 93% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of voting board members are independent.
