PLEASE MAKE A GIFT TODAY ([link removed])
Dear John,
As #GivingTuesdayNow draws to a close, this is our final email of the day, so I wanted to update you to let you know that we are just $2,031 dollars short of our goal of $15,000 for this #GivingTuesdayNow. It's not too late if you want to join us ([link removed]) - everything is matched today so you can double your impact.
I also wanted to share with you some of the exciting work we’re doing on OutRight TV. One of our latest episodes features Executive Director Jessica Stern with none other than the amazing Karamo Brown. ([link removed])
Do you know Karamo? Well, if you aren’t familiar with the new Queer Eye, this episode is your chance to get a more intimate look at one of Netflix’s most fabulous shows. In this episode, Jessica talks with the Queer Eye star about his time as an OutRight Board member, his work as a queer activist, interconnectivity in the global LGBTIQ movement, and the Fab Five coming to OutRight.
OutRight has responded in many different ways to the global COVID-19 outbreak. Along with our Emergency Fund, OutRight TV was created in order to address the struggles people in our community are facing. Jessica Stern and Karamo Brown talk about the global effect of COVID-19 on the LGBTIQ community, and the marginalization of its people.
"We have a government that is trying to take away our rights consistently, but imaging being in a place where the government doesn't even acknowledge you're here and then also says if you die we don't care."
-Karamo Brown
It’s important during these troubling times to look for the light in the darkness. Our sincerest thank-yous go out to Karamo Brown and everyone who has contributed to OutRight’s Covid-19 Emergency Fund. With your help, we've raised $13,000 so far!
Your generous support, as well as the work of so many great grassroots organizations around the world, is evidence that we are truly coming together as a global community. Together, we will make it through these troubling times, and come out stronger on the other side.
“It's up to us to let them know, our LGBTQIA+ family members who are overseas, that though your government doesn't care, WE CARE."
- Karamo Brown
And remember, every gift up to $15,000 will be matched, increasing the impact your donation will have!
Thank you for all that you do,
Maria Sjödin
Deputy Executive Director
OutRight Action International
P.S. You can double or even triple the impact of your gift through your employer’s matching grants program. See if your employer will match donations! ([link removed])
