Pull for Pride Seattle @ Rain City Fit
June 18, 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Rain City Fit is bringing Pull for Pride back to Seattle!
Pull for Pride is a series of deadlift-only fundraisers created in response to the lack of spaces for LGBTQIA2+ people to safely engage in sport and fitness. Rooted in a celebration of TGNC participation, Pull for Pride has always drawn a sharp contrast with the norm in strength sport competitions, which commonly discriminate against TGNC athletes.
All Pull for Pride events benefit an LGBTQIA2+ organization local to the city’s town in which it’s being hosted. This model has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars since it began.
Pull For Pride is a program of Strength For All, a 501c3 nonprofit organization.
Who is Seattle’s Pull For Pride benefiting?
Gender Justice League: A Washington State gender and sexuality civil and human rights organization based in Seattle, Washington.Their focus is on elevating civil and human rights for trans and gender diverse people through advocacy efforts, creating community, and shared leadership development.
