Stonewall Blooms 2026

Celebrating FLINTA Excellence
Thursday, April 23 | Hudson Yards, NYC

Join us for our inaugural Stonewall Blooms celebration, a first-of-its-kind event highlighting the pivotal role the FLINTA (femme, lesbian, intersex, nonbinary, trans, and/or agender) community plays in our Movement. Blooms will bring together dozens of change-makers for a lively cocktail party honoring nonprofit icon Glennda Testone for her decades of impactful leadership.

Stonewall Blooms 2026 will feature:

  • An open bar

  • Gourmet hors d’oeuvres

  • A brief, yet inspiring awards program.

Funds raised at Blooms 2026 will support Stonewall Community Foundation and our efforts to fuel critical LGBTQ+ programs and services in New York and across the country. As attacks against the queer and trans community ramp up, we’re working to safeguard our community against discriminatory legislation, anti-LGBTQ+ violence, health disparities, and more.

Now heading up the Nonprofit Leadership Lab, Glennda is committed to empowering thousands of nonprofit leaders across the country.
