White House Egg Roll 2007


Back by popular demand, Family Pride is organizing a contingent of LGBTQ-headed families to participate in the White House Egg Roll again this year.With your help, on April 9th, hundreds of LGBTQ-parented families will fill the White House Lawn, rolling eggs side by side with our fellow citizens. At Family Pride, we believe that by participating fully and openly in time honored traditions like the Egg Roll we can help the American public come to know our families.Last year’s Egg Roll was an amazing time and, for one weekend, this country was introduced to our families on a grand scale. And in addition to educating people about our lives, we had a great time rolling eggs, meeting amazing children’s characters and participating in a wonderful family celebration.So, help make history again by joining us or volunteering at the egg roll! If you can't make it to the event, please financially support the visibility of LGBTQ-parented families–changing hearts and minds across the country.White House Egg Roll Important Facts:
