During the month of June, the Atlanta Dream honors the pursuit of equal justice for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer communities, and recognizes the impact that LGBTQ+ individuals have had on history by dedicating two games in celebration of LGBTQ+ Pride: the June 24th game against the New York Liberty and the June 26thgame against the Connecticut Sun.
A portion of ticket sales from each game will go toLost-n-Found Youth, an Atlanta-based non-profit that exists to end homelessness for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and all sexual minority youth, by providing the skills and support needed to live independently.
Friday night’s game against the Liberty will feature a halftime performance from Atlanta’s own musician and drag performer Taylor Alxndr, and the Gay Men’s Chorus will perform the National Anthem at Sunday’s game against the Sun.
