Dear John –
This fall, as part of our efforts to support queer and trans youth in the South, we worked with youth-serving partners across the South to distribute care packages to LGBTQ+ young people – and one of the most special parts was a new book that we produced through Southern Equality Studios: “You Are Powerful, You Are Loved.” The book is full of messages of love, support, and solidarity that CSE supporters submitted throughout 2023. It features just a few of the hundreds of messages that poured in from around the world.
You Are Powerful, You Are Loved has been so resonant and meaningful for trans and nonbinary/gender nonconforming youth – and so we also wanted to offer these affirming messages with supporters of the Campaign for Southern Equality more broadly.
Between now and November 30th, you can pre-order a copy of the book – and when you order a copy with your donation of $50 or more, we’ll send an additional copy to a trans young person in the South. To pre-order the book for yourself or to send to a loved one, click on this link and make a donation. Books will be shipped just in time for the holidays.
And you know what else? The generous donor who is matching every dollar donated to our Southern Trans Youth Emergency Project, up to $25,000, extended the deadline for the matching funds through Giving Tuesday on November 28. Your $50 donation becomes $100 thanks to this generous match.
