ChrisO's GiveOUT Day fundraiser for EqualityMaine!

I’m ALWAYS excited to be raising funds for EqualityMaine (it's my job after all) I hope you will join me in making a gift this Pride month!

Our collective support will help send LGBTQ+ youth from across Maine to our New Leaders Project summer camp this August!

Each summer I get to spend time with the kids, usually doing some sort of leadership training, and each summer I walk away with even more faith in the future of our movement. The ideas, energy and passion to take what they learned at camp and go back to their schools to create REAL change is powerful!

I can't imagine what my life would be like today if I had the chance to go to a camp like this when I was a kid. The chance to be myself, meet other kids like me, learn from people on the ground doing the work, and spend time with elders who've paved the way for decades before.

You're donation will help make camp a reality for a whole new group kids from across Maine this August!

Give OUT Day, which culminates on June 30, is a national day of giving to lift up and support LGBTQ+ organizations across the country.

Every donation made throughout Pride month will help me reach my goal, and ultimately your gift can help us earn thousands of dollars in additional funds if we get the highest number of donors! A gift of $10, $25, $50 or $100 all really make a difference. 

I’m proud to support the work we do and I hope you will join me!
