San Francisco Pride facing financial troubles after several companies pull sponsorships

The organizers of San Francisco Pride (SF Pride) shared financial concerns due to major companies pulling funding this year.

SF Pride executive director Suzanne Ford said that the show will still go on, but organizers are going to have to make due with a smaller budget. Ford expressed suspicion this was part of a wave of businesses distancing themselves from diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs under the Trump administration.

“I’m very concerned. Obviously, there’s pressure from the federal government,” Ford told a local FOX affiliate.

“The tone has changed in this country. Businesses already hedge their bets, and I think people who, this isn’t their hard core value of their corporation, maybe they’re rethinking their investment,” Ford said.
