“Seeing thousands come together for Pride is profoundly moving—it's more than inspiring; it's humbling," shared Kaye Ally, founder and director of Pride of Africa Foundation. Ally further told IOL that large crowds speak to the efforts that were put in during the build up to the event. “I think people definitely identify and resonate with what we're saying and we see it in the love and attention that they're giving us.”
