Dear John,

We want to reach out once more before this day is over and express our gratitude for a year of incredible progress and meaningful victories—thanks to your unwavering support. Together, we’ve made strides in building a pipeline of LGBTQ+ leaders ready to face the challenges ahead and secure our community's future.

As you read earlier today in the email from Mayor Annise Parker, we’ve achieved remarkable progress thus far, and our leadership, staff, elected officials, allies and champions are working hard to ensure that our voices continue to be heard, and our representation grows stronger.

This is where YOU come in. We need your support to continue the work that is already transforming lives and communities. Whether you give $5, $25, or $25,000, your contribution will directly fund the training, visibility, and leadership development that will carry this movement forward.

Your year-end gift will help us grow existing programs such as our Leadership Summits and launch new initiatives like the LGBTQ+ Excellence Project— to prepare the next generation to take charge in public service.

Will you help us end 2024 with a powerful statement of support for LGBTQ+ leadership and representation? Your year-end, tax-deductible donation ensures that our work continues, and that we remain poised to shape a brighter, more inclusive future.

Thank you for standing with us. Together, we are unstoppable.

With gratitude,

Elliot Imse
Executive Director, LGBTQ+ Victory Institute
