Buffalo Brunch

The Buffalo Brunch honors individuals, groups, organizations, and businesses that help celebrate and embrace the LGBTQ+ community within the greater Western New York community. This is the 25th year of the Buffalo Brunch and the 15th year of embrace Western New York!

These Honorees receive the “Community Service Award” for their efforts (past, present, and future) in furthering our mission of Through Education All Things are Possible. In addition to the awards, the Buffalo Brunch is the principal fundraising activity for embrace Western New York, which firmly believes in “Giving local …Supporting Local.” Proceeds from the Buffalo Brunch are disbursed through embrace Western New York in the form of community grants and sponsorships, as well as educational scholarships for local post-secondary students receiving an education at a local college, university or trade school.
