Run by volunteers since 1964, The Pollys Club provides an inclusive, safe, fun and friendly community dance space that supports self-expression and connectedness thus helping to address social isolation in the LGBTIQA+ community. Any surplus funds are donated to charities focused on men’s health, women’s health, youth health, mental health and animal welfare.
The Pollys Club received a small grant from PFA to support ongoing operational costs to ensure their continuation.
Pride Foundation Australia pays respect to the traditional custodians of the land and sea on which we live, work and play, we pay our respects to Elders past and present, acknowledging that sovereignty was never ceded.
Pride Foundation Australia commits through the resources we have available to us, to work with, for, and alongside Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and South Sea Islander LGBTIQ+ Sistergirl and Brotherboy peoples and communities to embed a self-determined future.
We further commit the contribution of a significant proportion of grant funding received to Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and South Sea Islander LGBTIQ+ Sistergirl and Brotherboy led initiatives to improve social outcomes.
Australia was, and always will be Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander land.
