Help us reach our current fundraising initiatives by making a donation:

Goal #1) to continue to offer two Eric Collins Memorial Awards in the amount of $500 each

Goal #2) to build up funds to offer guest speakers a small stipend of $50 for their time and contribution

Goal #3) to build a fund to purchase LGBTQIA+ children's books for local public libraries and school libraries
