PICNIC FOR PINNACLE
Picnic For Pinnacle is the perfect way to connect and REUNITE. Whether you are hosting or attending an in-person, virtual or hybrid picnic, there is no better way to create plenty of positivity and community after a challenging two years.
No matter where you are in Australia, you have the opportunity to host or attend a Picnic for Pinnacle and join us in helping to educate and empower young LGBTIQ+ Australians to achieve their full potential!
Our Vision
Our vision is for a more diverse and inclusive society with visible LGBTIQ+ role models.
Pinnacle enables young LGBTIQ+ Australians to realise their full potential, overcome challenges arising from their identity, become self-reliant, maintain their dignity and give back themselves. The lasting social and economic benefits for the individual, the LGBTIQ+ community, and wider society are great.
