At Equality NC Foundation, we envision a thriving, liberated North Carolina with a powerful LGBTQ+ community united in service of racial and social justice. Our mission is to build LGBTQ+ power through advocacy, education, and uplifting the stories of queer and trans North Carolinians in pursuit of racial and social justice.

Since 2020, there have been over 1,700 book bans in the country. We’ve faced many more anti-trans legislation as a country. Despite North Carolinian residents continuing to face a hostile legislative environment, our people have remained fortified by the love and care we have for each other. To live in North Carolina is to know inherently that we keep us safe. The passage of legislation like SB49, aimed at banning information and education access, HB237, which will be used to criminalize people for taking care of themselves and each other amidst the still ongoing public health crises brought forth by access to robust and affordable healthcare, and many others, we are still here. Equality NC is still the only statewide LGBTQ+ advocacy organization serving North Carolinians, and we are so proud to continue this work.

This year, Give Out Day falls during our annual Advocacy Day, where we bring residents face to face with those who represent them, and we let our representatives know that the legislation they put forth has not spoken for the people's will. Our people deserve a better NC for themselves, each other, and even for you. We all deserve to know that our states are dedicated to people, not private interests. This year, we ask that you help us show these representatives that public interest will always reign over their individual agendas.

We are our own best resource. We must leverage our personal and community relationships to support and protect our community, especially when attacked.

Unite with us this Pride Season. Give to Equality NC Foundation today and help us build a world where we are both strong and safe. Thank you for always showing up for each other and this community in unprecedented and beautiful ways.
