DC Spurs celebrates Pride Month

About this campaign

DC Spurs are a proud reflection of the diversity of our members and the history of the city we call home.

COVID-19 has had an incalculable toll on our community. This past year, we’ve seen countless businesses and organizations shutter under the weight of economic hardship and uncertainty. Fewer jobs and limited accesses to preventative healthcare and social services put DC's LGBTQ+ community at an exacerbated risk for homelessness, health disparities, and violence.

Overcoming the challenges, Casa Ruby, DC’s only bilingual and multicultural non-profit serving LGBTQ+ youth, kept its doors open, despite a 60% increase in clients in 2020. The iconic DC non-profit offers a wide range of services, including food, housing, health and wellness screenings, immigration services, domestic violence support, and job assistance – just to name a few.

As DC Spurs, we stand together with our LGBTQ+ community and there’s still more work to be done. Proceeds from our limited-edition DC Spurs Pride apparel will go to the Casa Ruby team that keeps our neighbors, friends, and family safe.
