All Set Events is committed to building a company that seeks and embraces diversity, actively pursues equity, and fosters an environment of inclusion. We believe in celebrating everyone and that hate has no place in events (or anywhere)! We understand each individual is unique and we honor the differences, even if we may not understand and are working to learn more about them. We are proud to partner with fellow small businesses that are owned and operated by women, BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ people.
Our commitment stems from an understanding of historic injustice and an unwavering belief that differences in perspectives, experiences, and identities ultimately creates unparalleled results. We value diversity across multiple dimensions. We live out this commitment in the below pledge.
WITH WORDS
Words carry meaning, and can cause harm — even if unintentional. I believe that my commitment to creating inclusive spaces is defined by my actions, not my beliefs. I am committed to ensuring the language I use helps people feel safer and more included in the spaces I occupy — in and outside of my work. I will be more thoughtful to use inclusive language and terms in my everyday conversations, on my website, forms, contracts, and on all social media for both employees and clients. I will focus on putting people first, not their characteristics. I will honor and normalize the use of people’s pronouns (She/Her, He/Him, They/Them, Ze/Hir, Ey/Em, Other). I will do this by asking, not assuming. I will continue to ask for feedback, to seek out learning opportunities, and surround myself with people who bring different perspectives than my own.
WITH RESOURCES
I’ll use my resources to find ways, both small and large, to demonstrate my support of underserved individuals, to help move equality forward and prevent the spread of hate. I will volunteer my time and donate my money to organizations that uplift, empower, and better the lives of those who have been ignored, misunderstood, mistreated, and othered by society. I will also not spend my money at known establishments or organizations who support systems of hate, exclusion, and violence against anyone because of their identity. I will use my voting power to show support to the candidates who are working to better the lives of those who have been ignored, misunderstood, mistreated, and othered by society.
WITH EDUCATION
I will attend webinars, workshops, talks, and trainings on diversity and inclusion. I am committed to always learning and growing as an ally.
As an ally, I pledge to stand for love by actively and continuously supporting those who have been ignored, misunderstood, mistreated, and othered by society. I will use my words and resources to sincerely understand, uplift, and support:
BIPOC
LGBTQIA+
People of all gender expressions
People of all gender identities
People of all ages
People of all sizes
People with disabilities
People of all ethnicities
As an ally I pledge to show my support in the below actionable ways everyday:
