Dear John, Thank you to everyone who participated in The Challenge Fundraising Event sponsored by our longtime partner, Hollister! Through your generosity, we raised over $51,000! These funds have already been put to work to support LGBTQ+ youth in K-12 schools this semester. While this year’s Challenge is over, our work continues. With restrictions on school athletics for trans youth, bathroom bans, and curriculum crackdowns, the threat of censorship is expanding. Queer identities and history are being erased in schools nationwide leaving students feeling vulnerable, frightened and less safe at school. |
When you make a special gift today you are not only rising up against these anti-democratic attacks on learning, you are rising up to protect LGBTQ+ youth and helping ensure they receive the education every child is entitled to, one that is safe and affirming for all.
With gratitude, Paul Irwin-Dudek |
