At DoorDash, we are proud to offer an inclusive environment, where everyone can be their true, authentic selves. As part of our efforts to create a workplace that engages people of all backgrounds while fostering an environment of diversity, equity, and inclusion, we’re celebrating Pride Month this June alongside our Pride@ Employee Resource Group.
This year’s Pride Month theme is “Kaleidoscope,” celebrating the diversity and vibrancy within the LGBTQ+ community by emphasizing how race, gender, sexuality, ability, and other aspects intersect to form unique individual identities.
Throughout the month of June, in partnership with our Pride@ ERG, we’re hosting a slew of in-person and virtual events designed to build community among our LGBTQ+ peers and allies.
We’ll kick off the month with a special edition of Drag Queen Bingo followed by pride themed trivia. We’ll host an artist spotlight with Geo Neptune, an empowering mental health session, and sip and slay with our resident mixologist, Jay. We’ll wrap the month of celebration with a roundtable discussion covering topics related to LGBTQ+ identity in the workplace and a letter writing event in our New York, Tempe, and San Francisco offices to support Point of Pride, an organization dedicated to providing financial aid and direct support to trans people in need of health and wellness care.
To encourage support during Pride Month and throughout the year, our Pride@ ERG also shared with our people a list of LGBTQ+ owned restaurants on DoorDash across our major office hubs.
We will continue to prioritize investing in and advancing opportunities for historically underrepresented people through our efforts as a company and by encouraging learning and development, such as Understanding and Supporting LGBTQ+ Employees and Becoming an Ally to All training opportunities.
