Dear John, The first 100 days of this new administration have been devastating for so many, including LGBTQ+ people and their families. From cruel executive orders to relentless attacks on transgender youth, the harm is real. And yet — because of you — so is the hope. Can you help us keep the hope — and the work — going with a donation to PFLAG National? Your support ensures that in the face of injustice, LGBTQ+ people and their families feel solidarity and belonging. In the last 100 days alone, you fueled PFLAG’s activism and advocacy… - Tracking, analyzing, and fighting more than 500 anti-LGBTQ+ bills;
- Sending PFLAG members, supporters, and chapters to advocacy days in Georgia, Florida, California, and Texas;
- Making thousands of calls to lawmakers to help defeat the federal trans sports ban;
- Working directly with federal legislators to support the reintroduction of The Safe Schools Improvement Act, The Therapeutic Fraud Prevention Act, and The Equality Act;
- Launching a bold statewide billboard campaign in Texas with our partners at TENT, sending a clear message: Transgender people belong in Texas;
…You built understanding and kept people informed… - Creating an Executive Order Explainers and Resources page, helping thousands clearly understand the impacts of this administration’s policies;
- Reaching nearly 3,000 people through PFLAG Academy Online webinars;
- Launching our Advocacy in 10 Minutes or Less video series;
- Hosting 15 Straight for Equality in the Workplace trainings, reaching nearly 1,000 new allies across 13 organizations — including four brand-new philanthropic partners;
And you expanded the PFLAG community… - Adding 22 new chapters to the PFLAG Chapter Network of over 350 chapters nationwide;
- Expanding our ranks of 550,000+ members and supporters with over 700 new PFLAGers in February, following the announcement of PFLAG v. Trump; and
- Launching the new PFLAG Connects: Dad Community to ensure fathers get the support and resources they need.
Because of you, we reached over 3 million people on social media with a simple, unstoppable message: We are here. Our love is louder. And we will not go back. With your gift to PFLAG National today, we will keep the work — and the hope — going for the next 100 days and beyond. |
