PRIDE HISTORY 🏳️🌈 The first gay pride parade was held in New York City one year after the Stonewall riots, a series of riots for gay liberation that took place over several days beginning on June 28, 1969. Since then, communities have come together all over the world to celebrate June as Pride Month. Did you know? 🌈 Artist Gilbert Baker designed the rainbow flag for the 1978 San Francisco’s Gay Freedom Celebration. Of the design, Baker said, “We needed something to express our joy, our beauty, our power. And the rainbow did that.” #TeamNatera is proud to support The Trevor Project, the world’s largest suicide prevention and mental health organization for LGBTQ+ young people. As part of our Charitable Donation Matching Program, we will match eligible donations made by Naterans to this organization during this month and beyond.
