'Pink' money and the 'rainbow' dollar: How to become an ally with LGBTQ+ businesses 

At a recent panel discussion in St. Petersburg, we heard the word "ally" a lot. But being an ally in the LGBTQ+ community means more than putting a pride flag or rainbow sticker outside your business. The "panel of inclusion" was held at the St. Pete Greenhouse, a partnership between the City of St. Petersburg and the St. Petersburg Area Chamber of Commerce. The Greenhouse helps all businesses grow through consulting, mentorships, professional networking, workshops, and panels.
