The Colours Organization’s mission is to impact, improve, and empower the lives of LGBTQ+ communities of color, especially those of the African diaspora, within the greater Philadelphia metropolitan area.

With an intentional focus on holistic wellness and safety, intersectionality, and community mobilization, we strive to support and uplift the experiences of those too often left in the margins.

Since the beginning, we’ve been helpers. We’ve been a consistent, solid resource for LGBTQ+ people of color throughout Philly for years. But it’s time to expand — others within our city need our aid. We are constantly seeking ways to open our doors and expand to the entire Philadelphia BIPOC community; we want to continue to be a pillar of the community and make more people feel supported, comforted, and loved each day. Colours has always been a place of support, but we also want to be a place of entertainment where community members can gather, socialize, and have a good time! No one should have to navigate through life alone, so we strive to aid our fellow Philadelphians as best as we can.
