What is Gracie’s House?

We are a 501(c)3 charity dedicated to providing safe spaces for LGBTQ youth. Our core program is PRIDE Camp, Pennsylvania’s first and only overnight summer camp program dedicated to LGBTQ youth aged 8-17. In 2025, our program outperformed its goals (we served 25 campers!), and we predict that we will double those numbers in 2026. Our campers experienced found-family joy as they spent the week climbing, ziplining, swimming, outdoor cooking, and hiking to beautiful views together. Our other yearlong programs highlight family, arts, music performance, expression, and connecting with nature. (In 2025, we served more than 300 community members.) Read more on our website.

Why an Auction?

Because auctions are fun. Also, during politically unstable times like these, our young LGBTQ communities are struggling, and organizations like ours are trying to fill many needs with fewer funds. We thought an auction that promotes arts and expression would be the perfect way to bring different communities together to help us support queer youth. These days, we need all the hands we can find to help us do this work.
