Build With Pride Seattle's Annual Summer Social & Fundraiser "Built to Rally" — celebrating the LGBTQIA+ professionals and allies who show up every day and build something remarkable. Last year's "Louder Together" event brought 200 attendees representing 95 companies and organizations, the event served as a powerful platform for building relationships and advancing inclusion in the trades. Thanks to the generosity of our attendees and sponsors, we successfully raised all the funds needed to fully launch the scholarship, directly supporting LGBTQIA+ individuals pursuing careers in construction.

Our Story
Three Years of Building Something Real
Where It Began
Three years ago, a simple but powerful idea took hold: what if Seattle's AEC community had a dedicated space to truly celebrate the LGBTQIA+ professionals and allies who show up every single day and build something remarkable?
That question sparked the first Build With Pride Seattle Pride Social — and the answer has been extraordinary ever since.
Special Guests
Meet the Talent Bringing the Energy
Every great rally needs unforgettable performances. This year's Built to Rally social will feature two incredible headliners keeping the energy high all night long. Details coming soon — trust us, you won't want to miss this.
Our DJ: DJ Clover
Get ready to dance. DJ Clover will be spinning the soundtrack to Seattle's most vibrant AEC celebration of the year. Expect high energy, great beats, and a dance floor that doesn't quit.
Drag Queen Host: Cookie Couture
Our fabulous Drag Queen Host Cookie Couture is back for a second time! She will be the MC for the evening bringing the kind of show-stopping presence that makes a night truly unforgettable. She'll tie the whole event together with style and celebration.
Sponsorship Opportunities
Help Us Make This Year the Biggest Yet
We're calling on AEC firms across Seattle to sponsor the third annual Pride Social and help us make this year more meaningful than ever. Your sponsorship does two powerful things at once.
First, it goes directly toward scholarships for LGBTQIA+ individuals entering the trades — investing in the next generation of builders who deserve a seat at the table. Second, it sends a clear, public message to your team, your clients, and your broader community about the culture you're actively building.
Sponsorship opportunities are open now. Join the firms already committed to making Seattle's AEC community more inclusive, visible, and vibrant.
Our Sponsors
