bialogue-group: Almost every LGBT person, no matter how out and well-adjusted we may be, has turned to an LGBT nonprofit at some point in our lives … None of these organizations … can survive on good will and worthy missions alone. They need support to open their doors; to litigate and advocate and organize; to keep dedicated staff — even to keep the lights on. And for that, they need us — all of us. 1 in 20: We Can Do Better: The Horizons Foundation’s research shows that not even 5 percent of LGBT people give direct financial support to LGBT organizations. That’s just one in 20. If every one of the 8 million+ LGBT people in the United States woke up on Give Out Day and gave $10 — just $10 — that would mean $80 million to take care of our elders, to fuel the fight for full equality, to make sure that queer youth can navigate this still-tough world, to support all those with medical and mental health issues, substance use, violence, poverty, discrimination, and dozens of other challenges. Give Out Day is a chance for all of us to be part of something much bigger than any of us. We hope All Bisexual/Non-monosexual, SGL + Queer identified people will consider donating to help fund your own Bisexual+ Community.
