Friend,
This is a deeply personal email, but I want to tell you why it's critical for us to take back our culture and education from the radical left… not just in sports, but even in children's books.
My story begins at the University of Kentucky. I was on the swim team. I am a 12-time NCAA all-American, 5x SEC champion, and SEC record holder in the butterfly.
But then it all changed for a photo-opt.
In March of 2022, I and other female swimmers were forced to compete with a male, Lia Thomas. We watched as this male swam to a title, beating out Olympians and other record holders. Despite tying Lia to the 100th of a second, the NCAA denied me the trophy because the NCAA claimed it was necessary to have Lia Thomas hold the trophy while photos were being taken.
The radical left reduced everything I worked my entire life for down to a photo opt.
But that's not all…
I was forced to share locker rooms with a 6'4" man.
This is where the madness needs to end because it's not just sports where the radical gender ideology movement is dominating.
Now, children's literature is injected with this radical gender ideology movement.
You can help me STOP this madness by making an urgent donation to SkyTree Book Fairs, which is combating Scholastic's transgender woke propaganda, by creating a wholesome and age-appropriate book fair alternative for parents, students, and educators. Click here to donate ANY amount!
Some of the books are too gross to even share with you on this email. But here are pages from "Welcome to St. Hell," a 2022 Scholastic book glamorizing gender transitioning to middle schoolers.
Full stop: This needs to end. No compromising. No more excuses.
While Scholastic holds a virtual monopoly on school book fairs, one organization is fighting back, and I am urgently asking for you to support them as you have supported my fight to defend women's sports.
SkyTree Book Fair offers schools a different option for book fairs. SkyTree Book Fairs is providing schools, parents, and children with an empowering alternative with literature rooted in truth and family values that matches the quality and ease of Scholastic while countering their harmful agenda.
Can you help me raise $50,000 in the next 48 hours toward SkyTree in order for them to host dozens of book fairs? Click here to chip in $35, $50, or even $100 >>
Why this matters:
You may remember Scholastic book fairs. All the kids used to love it when they came to school. It was a catalog of all the stories I got to read. It used to be an innocent event.
Unfortunately, that's all changed.
Scholastic now promotes woke, radical LGBT books. They promote a radical agenda over the well-being of kids.
And make no mistake, Scholastic is the nation's leading hotbed. Ellie Berger, president of Scholastic's trade publishing division, wrote, "We pledge to stand with you as we redouble our efforts to combat the laws restricting children's access to books."
With over 120,000 book fairs a year, Scholastic is the biggest pusher of transgender, woke propaganda to school children.
That's why it's urgent we create more SkyTree book fairs.
SkyTree will not only promote age-appropriate books, but they will do so more efficiently to make it easier for schools to choose SkyTree over Scholastic.
However, SkyTree Book Fairs is a David VS. Goliath battle.
SkyTree has already secured its first public school book fair in Spotsylvania, VA!
No more racially divisive storylines. No more confusing gender content. Only age-appropriate content that will nurture childhood innocence and character.
SkyTree needs your support today. American children need your support today!!
We are quickly lining up hundreds of new book fairs in the Spring semester. It costs roughly $4,500 to host each book fair. Please help sponsor SkyTree book fairs in schools across the country.

Since I began sharing my story, I've received death threats and ugly and twisted threatening messages on social media. The media has labeled me an extremist.
I've even been physically assaulted by a mob of transgender activists.
But I'm not afraid.
Instead I think of what God tells us in Romans 8:18: I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.
You and I must take on this battle. We're called to do so.
Let's step up and provide children with a positive alternative to what's happening in Scholastic book fairs by supporting SkyTree.
I hope you will join me in supporting SkyTree to ensure that children have access to high-quality literature that aligns with our most cherished values and principles.
Thank you,
Riley Gaines
