Dear John,

Imagine a world where everyone — no matter their identity or whom they love — can live freely, openly, and without fear. At Outright International, we believe this world is possible because we’ve spent nearly 35 years working toward it.

In partnership with a global network of partners and activists, we’ve fought to overturn discriminatory laws and uplift the voices of LGBTIQ individuals who have been silenced for far too long. Together, we’ve made remarkable strides and witnessed the power of courageous change-makers driving progress across the globe.

But these hard-won victories are only part of the story. While progress is real, it is fragile, and in many places, it’s under great threat.

That’s why a group of Outright’s most loyal donors has come together to match every dollar you give up to $35,000! But you must give before midnight on 12/31 EST to double your impact.

Our staff and partners around the world are at the forefront of this fight, challenging discrimination in all its forms. We are working tirelessly to change laws, reduce stigma, and provide vital support to LGBTIQ individuals facing hate and oppression. This is what progress looks like — small, persistent steps that together lead to powerful change.

But the reality is that these victories need to be protected and expanded. That’s why I’m asking for your help.

When you make your gift today, it will be doubled up to $35,000, ensuring the work that is so critical to our global LGBTIQ communities continues and grows.

This is our chance to make sure that the world we imagine — a world where every LGBTIQ person is free to live authentically — is no longer just a vision but a reality. Please give now and fight for that future today.

Together, we can ensure progress is unstoppable.

Warmly,

Maria Sjödin [they/she]
Executive Director
Outright International
