THANK YOU: You raised more than $19,000 for Give OUT Day!

Campus Pride won an additional $5,000 bonus for placing first on the Southern: Large Organization leaderboard and fifth overall

Thank you, donors!

Because of your support, Campus Pride came in first place in the Southern: Large Leaderboard at the end of Give OUT Day yesterday, which means we’ve won an additional $5,000 prize to fund our work on behalf of LGBTQ+ students across the country. 

We had more than 386 people donate to our Give OUT Day campaign, raising more than $14,000 in funding to support leadership training and resources for LGBTQ+ students and their allies. Altogether, that means we raised $19,256 this month!

Whether it’s Social Justice Mini-Grants for Activism, or our Safe Space and Stop The Hate trainings, or even our signature programs like Camp Pride Leadership Academy or the Campus Pride Index, your support is helping create safer, more inclusive communities for LGBTQ+ folks. 

Thank you for reading our emails and seeing the impact of our work. Thank you for sharing our mission with your friends, family, and coworkers. And thank you for donating to Campus Pride this Give OUT Day. We could not do this important work without you. 

Sincerely,

Shane Windmeyer

Executive Director & CEO, Campus Pride.
