Pink Dot Singapore![]() pinkdot.sg
Pink Dot Singapore (Sg) is a non-profit movement started by a group of individuals who care deeply about the place that LGBT Singaporeans call home. It is a group for everyone, straight and gay, who support the belief that everyone deserves the freedom to love. With openness and acceptance, Pink Dot Sg strives to bring LGBT Singaporeans closer to their family and friends. The color pink was chosen because it has stood for the LGBT community and that Singapore's national flag with the colors red and white, mixed together = pink. The Pink dot stands for an open, inclusive society within the Red Dot, where sexual orientation represents a feature, not a barrier.
