Gulf Coast Pride 2025

Help us grow the registry at Gulf Coast Pride 2025!!

We are so excited that NMDP will be hosting a donor recruitment booth at this year’s Gulf Coast Pride Festival, and we would love for you to join us!! Gulf Coast Pride is a HUGE festival held at Point Cadet Plaza, with an anticipated attendance of over 300 people! This event is such a great opportunity for us to share NMDP’s mission and let the LGBTQ+ community know they are both welcome and needed on our donor registry!!

Volunteers will help us spread awareness about blood stem cell donation, share the services NMDP provides, and allow attendees to swab and join the donor registry! Sign up for as many shifts as you're available for. All volunteers will be offered a training session before the event (details to follow) and receive a t-shirt and fun NMDP + Pride swag for their help! There is a limited supply of t-shirts available.

For any questions, comments, and concerns, contact the Mississippi Member Recruitment Coordinator, Te’Air Douglas at [email protected].
