More than a fundraiser, Tend is a celebration and a chance to gather with people who understand the journey, celebrate how far we've come, and fuel the work that lies ahead. Tend highlights the incredible resilience and work of our LGBTQ+ scholars, the fortitude of our grantee partners, and CARE's work that advances equity and justice for LGBTQ+ communities across Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington.
This year's theme, Homecoming, reflects our commitment to creating spaces where LGBTQ+ people can return to ourselves, to community, and to the places that nurture and sustain us.
