Gulf South LGBTQ+ Chamber of Commerce July Newsletter

I hope you had a great June and had the opportunity to celebrate Pride Month in some way - there were many opportunities! Your Gulf South LGBTQ+ Chamber was present as several of them - New Orleans PrideFest, New Orleans Area Habitat for Humanity's Pride Build, Baton Rouge Pride Resource Fair, and Pride at the Broadside, to name a few.

Look for more opportunities to network and engage with other Gulf South LGBTQ+ Chamber members to be announced in the coming weeks. Thank you for supporting the Chamber!
