WHY Should You Donate
To Help LGBTQ Youth?
Here are just a few reasons why your support is needed...
"I can vividly remember going to YouthPride for the first time. It was a cold winter night, and after another tearful experience explaining to my parents the foundations of my life, I entered the door of the YouthPride Center and walked in to a life-changing experience..."
"If YouthPride has done one thing for me, it has changed my guilty, horrible feelings about being gay into a positive and inspiring feeling of pride, happiness, and love. I have made more friends, gained more knowledge, and overcome more fears by being a part of YP than I could have anywhere else. I only hope that future GLBT you will have the opportunity to be a part of YP..."
"Since my first experience at YouthPride in April of 2006, I have "come out" to my friends and family. I have started a gay-straight alliance at my high school, become more aware of who I am, and have had numerous opportunities to help the LGBTQ community. All of these achievements were made possible with the support I was given by the staff and volunters at YouthPride..."
PLEASE HELP BY MAKING A DONATION TODAY
Youth and young adults (ages 13 to 24 years old) walk through our doors each and every day looking for a place where they can be accepted; become empowered; and find comfort, understanding, and compassion. YouthPride staff and volunteers help youth to develop better "life skills"; assist with suicide prevention efforts; aid homeless youth; and provide free HIV/AIDS testing and counseling.
Please support our youth and help provide funding for vital programs that are needed to assist metro Atlanta's LGBTQ!
Your contribution TODAY can help a youth TOMORROW have a safe place to call home; realize that there IS a "light at the end of the tunnel"; or simply have a place to hang out with friends and know they are accepted and appreciated for who they are, just as they are!
