Through April 15th.
In these times, we continue to hold ourselves and our communities with love and support. We know the antidote to attacks from far-right forces and hateful rhetoric is solidarity and working together. That's why we always have the back of incredible local and state leaders like Transgender Education Network of Texas (TENT).
Now we are calling on you to show up and support our trans communities that are #RootedInResilience. TENT and TLC are a few days into our 2-week #RootedInResilience online fundraising campaign to collectively raise $200,000 for trans and gender nonconforming communities in Texas and across the country.
Now is the time to join us. Here's what you can do:
- Check out our fundraising guide with instructions and tips to create your own personal fundraising page (or email [email protected] and we can talk you through it).
- Share widely! Email the link to your page to friends, family, and colleagues. Post on social media. Talk about your fundraising project at work.
- Can't fundraise? That's fine! You can still be a part of #RootedInResilience by making a gift of any amount to the #RootedInResilience campaign.
P.S. Right now, thanks to our generous matching donors, your donation is DOUBLED!
