Plus: Meet our Summer Law Fellows

Thank you to the over 400 friends and supporters who joined our 20th Anniversary Gala and Awards ceremony on Wednesday evening. If you weren't able to make the gala, you can view it below.

We are so proud of our work over the past two decades and we know we have much more to do. We can’t do it without you!

In honor of our 20th anniversary, Tawani Foundation is matching all gifts from new donors or increased giving from current donors, dollar for dollar. They have given us a $75,000 challenge and we met $45,000 of it during the gala. Please help us meet the rest! Consider making a donation ([link removed]) to help fund 20 more years of LGBTQ research with impact!
