Terrabis honors pride month with fundraiser for LGBTQIA+ organizations in MO and IL

 

In celebration of Pride Month, Terrabis is excited to announce a fundraiser supporting local LGBTQIA+ organizations in Missouri and Illinois. This year marks the third consecutive year that Terrabis will participate in the Ozarks Pride Fest on Saturday, June 8, from 12 PM to 6 PM, and the Grand Pride Parade St. Louis on Sunday, June 30, 2024, at noon. The company invites everyone to visit their booth at these events and join in the festivities as they continue to champion inclusivity and support for the surrounding community.

As part of this year’s Pride Month activities, Terrabis will be selling specially designed Pride t-shirts. A portion of proceeds from the sales of these shirts will benefit two impactful LGBTQIA+ organizations: the St. Louis Queer+ Support Helpline (SQSH) and The GLO Center of the Ozarks. These organizations provide support, resources, education, and advocacy communities in their respective regions and beyond.

Terrabis’ CEO, Dan Ambrosino, emphasized the company’s commitment to fostering an inclusive and supportive environment. “We believe in celebrating diversity and inclusivity. As part of this commitment we offer same-sex domestic partnership coverage, paid parental leave, and free short-term counseling with LGBTQIA+ specialized counselors through our Employee Assistance Program. Our employees share preferred names and pronouns to ensure every team member is addressed exactly as they want to be. As we celebrate Pride Month, we are excited to give back to the communities we serve through this fundraiser.”

   

Terrabis’s dedication to inclusivity extends beyond its internal practices. By supporting organizations like SQSH and The GLO Center, Terrabis demonstrates its commitment to making a positive impact on the lives of LGBTQIA+ individuals in Missouri and Illinois. Both organizations provide invaluable services that help create safe and affirming spaces for the queer+ community to thrive.

As Terrabis continues to grow, the company looks forward to creating even more opportunities that benefit local communities, reinforcing its ongoing commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
