Hello,
Welcome to Back to School season!
As we face the most politically challenging time for LGBTQ+ students in recent history, it is more important than ever to show our youth that we will Rise Up as a collective to support them.
From restrictions on school athletics for trans and gender non-conforming youth; bathroom bans; crackdowns on curriculum covering LGBTQ+ history, African American history and the rights of historically marginalized people — the threat of censorship in schools is alive.
We will not back down.
Whether you choose to show your support for LGBTQ+ students by resharing encouraging social media posts, wearing your pronoun buttons, or empowering students to form communities of their own support, each action of Rising Up shows LGBTQ+ youth they have our support.
Help us make schools safer and more affirming for LGBTQ+ students by donating today. Thanks to our partner, Hollister, when you donate through the link below, you ensure your gift will not only be directed to GLSEN but matched up to $20,000!
