The gala is largest LGBTQ+ military event of the year honoring modern military families for their service and sacrifice. We celebrate with 200+ of service members, veterans, military spouses, community leaders, and advocates.
Sponsoring the National Gala connects your brand to thousands of military families from across the country and around the world — military families who are committed to supporting the organizations and companies who support our community.
