Our volunteers are an integral part of St Pete Pride (SPP). An executive board of volunteers with our Executive Director, Nicole Berman, leads St Pete Pride. Volunteers staff every event.

In 2023, we will have three volunteers dedicated to supporting and coordinating our volunteers. I am the Director of Volunteer Management, Duncan Kennedy is the Volunteer Coordinator, and Mickey Collins is the Volunteer Administrator. We pride ourselves on communicating, supporting, and informing our volunteers. We want everyone to feel supported and, most importantly, have a great time.

How to Volunteer
Eventeny is the event platform we use for volunteer management. The platform lists all Pride season events, shifts, and volunteer roles. We have over ten events in June. The primary source of our programming comes from our Tampa Bay community engagement. Our organization finances the events through donations and grants. The events range in experiences and venues. The roles vary based on the event but may involve checking people in, selling merchandise, setting up and breaking down, vendor coordinating, and many more. Our most significant need for setting up and breaking down volunteers is typically on Parade and Street Carnival Day.

You can sign up on stpetepride.org.

Thank you!

If you volunteer or have volunteered, we are grateful! Our organization wouldn’t exist without your support. We give back to our volunteers by providing a t-shirt, access to whatever event they are volunteering at, snacks, water, a post-pride volunteer event, volunteer mixers, and many other ways! We love getting to know our SPP community. Thank you for supporting SPP and our St. Pete community. I look forward to seeing you this Pride season, whether it is volunteering or attending one of the many events!
