2009 Manila Pride March season kicks off

From Task Force Pride’s blog:

2009 Manila Pride : We Dare, We Care

Pride season has begun!

Like previous Pride Parades-the 2009 Manila Pride March, scheduled to take place on Saturday, December 5, 2009 in Malate, promises to gather thousands of Transgender Lesbian Bisexual and Gay (TLBG) Filipinos and foreigners alike, including their friends, families, loved ones and supporters in one massive and colorful parade that will rival the biggest Pride Marches around the world, from London to Paris; San Francisco to New York; from Tokyo toTaipei.

Organized by Task Force Pride (TFP) Philippines, the 2009 Manila Pride March carries the theme We Dare We Care (WDWC), the slogan of a solidarity and conscious-raising campaign launched by, for and of TLBG* organizations seeking to unify the local TLBG community and working to raise the awareness of Philippine society about the needs, issues and concerns facing them through different activities including the Pride March.

Show that you care for our community by daring to march with Pride! It is the only day out of the year that our community can shine together as one-everybody is encouraged to march in shimmering splendid silver on December 5!

*TLGB – same as LGBT and GLBT; gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender
