Our Story
The CHEER For Life Foundation, established in 1980, began as the world's first LGBTQ-identified cheerleading team, CHEER San Francisco. Over the years, it has evolved to support vital organizations that provide critical services to at-risk members of the LGBTQ+ community and beyond. With a rich history of community engagement, the foundation has been a beacon of hope, especially during the AIDS epidemic, raising funds through performances and volunteer efforts.
