Dear John —

“It’s complicated!”

If 2020 were a relationship status, that’s the box we’d be checking.

The words “uncertain” and “unprecedented” have been used to the point of exhaustion. We’re not going to do that to you anymore. By now, we know many things for sure. Most of us are having less face-to-face human interaction, we’re not going into the office as much (if at all), school is different, social outings are infrequent. It can all feel a bit… isolating.

Ten years ago, the It Gets Better Project was conceived as a way to connect with LGBTQ+ youth who felt lost and isolated. The LGBTQ+ community and its allies joined together to form a digital support system, and a viral movement was born. Young people who had struggled to find others who understood what they were feeling suddenly had access to countless stories validating their experience. Our work was, as it continues to be, a lifeline to LGBTQ+ youth highlighting a path to acceptance.

The need for connection never wanes. At a time when many LGBTQ+ youth are cut off from their peers, mentors and support systems, they need the It Gets Better Project more than ever.

As part of the It Gets Better Project’s 10-year anniversary, we are launching “A Decade of Progress,” [[link removed]] a special fundraising challenge and a time to reflect on the accomplishments we and the LGBTQ+ community have experienced over the last decade. It is a time to remind ourselves that the momentum is real, and it is a time to plan for the incredible strides we will make in the years to come.

John, come dream with us. Between now and the end of the year, help us raise $150,000 in critical funds to ensure that every young LGBTQ+ person around the world has the ability to connect with their community -- with folks who love and support them. [[link removed]]

Join us in creating a brighter and more hopeful future for LGBTQ+ youth everywhere. Help us show that we are always stronger when we stick together, and in the digital space, together is always possible. [[link removed]]

Thank you for your continued support! We could not do this without you!
