Why did Lil Doggie Den Join Oregon Pride in Business?

I’m an ORPIB member because Lil Doggie Den is a queer-owned small business rooted in values of inclusion and community. ORPIB membership allows me to connect with and support other LGBTQ‑owned organizations across Oregon, strengthen local queer-led entrepreneurship, and access resources that help Lil Doggie Den—and the broader queer business ecosystem—grow.
