Double Down on LGBTQ Visibility by 6/28

Hey Friend!
Listen up! There's only three days left in our Pride Match, which means it's time to get serious about supporting GLAAD's work in elevating LGBTQ representation and visibility! Now is the time to double your impact by changing the channel so millions of Americans tune in to equality.
I know firsthand just how life-changing and life-saving seeing our stories in mainstream media can be. As a producer on Good Morning America, I shared the secret I hid for over eight years: I'm HIV-positive. I felt ashamed, alone, and scared because I knew what our society whispers about people like me.
But the response I got in sharing my diagnosis was overwhelming. I learned that accepting my diagnosis meant accepting myself first. And I found that being brave enough to tell my story helped so many others accept people like me. Our stories are the antidote to hate and fear -- so please match our pride by 6/28 to have double the impact on LGBTQ representation.

In a time when misinformation and anti-LGBTQ rhetoric runs rampant and unchecked, know that it's LGBTQ stories that are cut first. Now is a time for action, to protect all that has been accomplished in LGBTQ visibility and respond to hate with undeterred support for our beautiful and resilient community.
Because our existence is our resistance and our stories matter. Your story matters.
Before you take to the streets for the last weekend of Pride, please take control and change the channel with a gift that automatically doubles. Our visibility has never been more crucial, and there's only a few more days to double down on it.
If you're an ally, please make the most generous gift you can -- and thank you for your support. Right now, anti-LGBTQ hate is at an all-time high, but thanks to people like you, so is LGBTQ acceptance. Together, we can mute the hate and achieve 100% acceptance.
Thank you,
Tony Morrison (he/him)
Senior Director of Communications
P.S. Pride is an incredible time for queer people in cities across the world, but it can also be an incredibly isolating time for LGBTQ people living in small towns or more conservative areas. For many of them, their access to the queer community is through social media -- a space we're working hard to keep safe with our Social Media Safety Program. Please consider those members of our community when you support our work today.
