The Gala Pride & Diversity Center is powered by our dedicated volunteers. Without their support, we simply couldn’t operate.

We invite you to join us and contribute your time to the essential work we do every day. Together, we’re building a healthy, respected, and valued LGBTQ+ community embraced by the broader Central Coast.

No matter how you choose to volunteer, you make a difference, and you are truly appreciated!

The Gala Pride & Diversity Center welcomes all individuals regardless of ethnicity, ability, gender identity, sexual orientation and age. Stop by the Center for a cup of tea and a fabulous chat!
