Stonewall Columbus Pride Volunteers

Be a part of Pride 2025! Experience Pride in a new way—make new friends, celebrate in community, and create a lasting impact. The theme for the 2025 Stonewall Columbus Pride Festival and March is “United in Power.” This year’s theme is a call to action and a reminder of the strength we hold when we come together. In the face of ongoing challenges, we must stand united—LGBTQ+ community members, allies, and accomplices—demanding visibility, respect, and equality for all. “United in Power” honors our shared resilience, the progress we’ve made, and the work that still lies ahead. It is a celebration of authenticity, collective strength, and the unwavering commitment to fight for a future where all of us can live freely and fully as our true selves. And when we say “we,” we mean you, too! Volunteers are the heart of Pride, and we are especially grateful for your support. Sign up for as many shifts as you'd like, and let’s make Pride 2025 an unforgettable celebration of unity and strength.

There will be additional communication prior to the Festival and March instructing you where to check-in for your shift and volunteer leads will provide more information upon your arrival the day-of as to your specific duties and assignments for your shift. The weekend of Pride is generally very hot and the safety and well-being of our volunteers is our utmost priority. Please communicate very clearly any accommodations you will need for your shift and during your shift if you should ever need a break. As a small token of our appreciation, volunteers will receive one drink ticket (non-alcoholic/alcoholic included), a volunteer t-shirt, snacks and water during volunteer hours. Volunteers will be required to wear their volunteer t-shirt during their shift so they can be easily identified. Please dress accordingly for the weather and wear protective shoes, SPF, hats, sunglasses, etc. There is minimal space to store volunteer items so please be prepared to leave anything you do not need at home. Every volunteer is required to sign the liability waiver located at the end of this form. I am aware of the terms and conditions of this agreement and am signing this agreement of my own free will. Further, by signing this agreement I attest to the fact that I am eighteen years of age or older. I expressly agree that this Agreement is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by the laws of the State of Ohio in the United States of America and that this Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio.
