Pride Month is a time to celebrate how far we’ve come — and reflect on how much further we have to go. Here are some ways you can get involved with the Wisconsin Alumni Association’s Pride celebration this year:
Request Your Free Gift
This Pride Month, we’re giving away free Badger Pride lunch totes! There are only 350 available, so request yours today.
Join Us at the Duck Pond
The Wisconsin Alumni Association (WAA): Rainbow Affinity Group is hosting alumni and allies at the Madison Mallards’ Pride Night game on Friday, June 27. Come enjoy good company, unlimited food and drink in the Duck Blind, and all the fun of an evening at the Duck Pond! Tickets for our reserved tables are limited so register now.
Connect with LGBTQ+ Badgers and Allies
WAA is working to move inclusivity forward. This includes greater representation of LGBTQ+ individuals, families, and topics in our communications; increased partnerships with LGBTQ+ organizations in Wisconsin; and more.
One important step is the recent relaunch of the WAA: Rainbow Affinity Group. Previously called the GLBT Alumni Council, this group helps connect LGBTQ+ Badgers and their allies everywhere. Not a member yet? Follow the Rainbow Affinity Group on social media to learn about upcoming activities and other news!
Celebrate on Campus
Save the date for our Badger Meet-Up on Saturday, Aug. 2. Join fellow Badgers for family-friendly summer fun celebrating the Wisconsin Alumni Association’s identity-based affinity groups. Check back soon for details — or follow the Rainbow Affinity Group on Facebook or Instagram.
Be a Badger Leader
Interested in getting even more involved? We’re looking for volunteer leaders like you to join the board of the WAA: Rainbow Affinity Group!
