Hey folks! I know a lot of y'all are members of the local LGBTQ community and if you are not a member, then many of you are allies. The Pride Center, which does SO MUCH for our community (including providing a space for groups such as BISAN: Bisexual San Antonio Network to gather in), has recently had a major stumble. The lease on their space was not renewed, and they have to be out by the end of June, which many of you know is Pride Month. A real kick to the gut and the timing couldn't be worse.
They have a new temporary location lined up, but they DO need help. Please consider donating - if you can do the $15 for 15 months, that's outstanding. If you can do more or less, that's great too. If you can only make a one-time donation, every dollar helps. Please step up at this crucial moment.

Fiesta fits for future besties! 🐾🎉
Help us get our pups Fiesta-ready for their forever homes! 💙
Around here, every day feels like Fiesta — and our pets love to dress to impress for their photo shoots and meet-and-greets! 📸🐶 From bright colors to festive flair, a bandana is the perfect finishing touch to help them shine when meeting potential families.
But here’s the thing… we go through 150+ bandanas every single week 😲🎊
That’s a whole lot of wagging tails and outfit changes!
We’re currently in need of medium to large, solid color bandanas to keep every pup looking their best and ready to fiesta their way into a forever home. 🏡✨
📍 Drop off or deliver donations to:
Animal Care Services – 4710 State Hwy 151
🛍️ View our wishlist:

Fiesta fashion means a fresh bandana, a happy tail, and a pup ready to say “adopt me!” 💃🐕💫

📚 BOOK DRIVE FOR THRIVE YOUTH CENTER 📚
Help THE STRIP COLLECTIVE build a library of hope for the LGBTQ+ youth, of Thrive starting this January!
The San Antonio Q***r Collective, the Strip Collective, the Wetty Collective, and The Write Spot are partnering to collect books for the Thrive Youth Center Emergency Shelter — San Antonio’s only emergency shelter specifically serving LGBTQ+ youth experiencing homelessness.
WHY THIS MATTERS:
LGBTQ+ youth face a 120% higher risk of homelessness than their peers and make up 40% of all youth experiencing homelessness, despite being only 7% of the youth population. Many arrive at Thrive with nothing but the clothes on their backs after being rejected by family or fleeing unsafe situations.
Books provide comfort, escape, education, and empowerment during the most difficult times. Your donations will help stock Thrive’s emergency shelter library, giving young people ages 18-24 access to stories, knowledge, and hope while they rebuild their lives.
WHAT TO DONATE:
• YA fiction & graphic novels
• Books on life skills, career development, & education
• LGBTQ+ themed books & memoirs
• Self-help & mental wellness books
• Children’s books (for young parents)
• New or gently used books in good condition
‼️
BRING BOOKS TO WORD ON THE STRIP !!
‼️
ABOUT THRIVE YOUTH CENTER:
Thrive provides emergency shelter, case management, and supportive services to help LGBTQ+ young adults achieve stability and independence in San Antonio.
Together, we can turn the page toward a brighter future.
