30 Years of Community,
Connection & Giving Back
Since 1996, Lazy Bear Week has brought bears together on the Russian River while raising funds for LGBTQ+ and community organizations.
Since August 4, 2025, we have distributed
$119,500 to grant applicants!
Our mission is to raise funds through engaging events THEN distribute them to organizations that support LGBTQ+ communities and broader health initiatives.
We are dedicated to giving back to nonprofits.
