Dear Friend,

Happy Pride Month.

Every June, businesses, organizations, employee resource groups, and community leaders ask us the same question:

How can we support the transgender community in a meaningful way?

At The Queer Trans Project, our answer is simple: help us get gender-affirming care into the hands of people who need it most.

This Pride Month, we need to raise $30,000 to restock gender-affirming items and continue shipping free Build-A-Queer Kits to trans people across the country. Every dollar helps provide access to items that improve confidence, safety, comfort, and well-being for transgender and nonbinary people.

The good news is there isn't just one way to help.

Your business, organization, team, or community can support trans people this Pride Month by:

• Donating directly to our June campaign

• Creating a workplace fundraiser and encouraging employees to participate

• Donating a portion of sales from a product, service, event, or Pride promotion (reply to this email if you are interested!)

• Hosting a customer round-up campaign at checkout

• Sponsoring a restock of gender-affirming care items

• Matching employee donations

• Sharing our mission and campaign with your audience

No matter the size of your organization or business, every effort helps us reach more people who need support.

At a time when transgender people continue to face barriers to healthcare, increasing discrimination, and attacks on our rights, community support matters more than ever. Pride has always been about people coming together to care for one another, and we invite you to be part of that tradition.

If you'd like to get involved, reply to this email and we'd be happy to brainstorm ideas that fit your organization and goals.

Together, we can make sure more trans people have access to the care, affirmation, and support they deserve.

Thank you for standing with our community this Pride Month.

With gratitude,

Cielo Sunsarae
Founder & Executive Director
The Queer Trans Project
