Can't Cancel Pride was created during the COVID-19 pandemic when so many Pride events around the world were forced to cancel, limiting LGBTQ+ community visibility and decreasing fundraising activities for critical LGBTQ+ organizations. In its first four years, Can't Cancel Pride has raised over 14 million dollars for six diverse LGBTQ+ charitable organizations. In 2023 alone, Can't Cancel Pride reached over 23 million viewers and listeners.

With support from P&G brands including, Bounty®, Cascade®, Charmin®, Dawn®, Downy®, Febreze®, Gillette® Venus, Olay Body, Pantene®, Swiffer® and Tide®, the event is a month-long Pride celebration throughout June. Fans can follow along on social media using the hashtag #CantCancelPride and support the participating nonprofits by visiting cantcancelpride.com.
