VincentCare shone bright at Midsumma Pride March
Despite Sunday's extreme heat, this year's Midsumma Pride March was a celebration of unity and pride, with an even larger crowd of onlookers lining the streets.
Underneath the vibrant VincentCare banner, our spirited group of 21 marchers, including clients, volunteers and employees from across the organisation, stole the show. Dressed in eye-catching “Homeless to House Proud” T-shirts and waving pride flags high, we were a beacon of inclusion and empowerment.
As we marched, we passed out small branded paper flags to spectators, each featuring a QR code to find out more about our services. The response was overwhelming, with nearly all 500 flags snapped up before we even hit the halfway mark.
Every step through the cheers of supporters and the vibrant energy emanating from the crowd fuelled our movement. We are reminded of the profound power of affirmation, solidarity and love that defines the Midsumma Pride experience.
With such overwhelming enthusiasm, we’re already planning to double our flag order for next year’s march. The spirit of VincentCare shines brighter than ever.
