Last Week for PFLAG INDY AD - Deadline September 17

Annual PFLAG Triangle Signature Ad Dear Friends of PFLAG, PFLAG Triangle once again will sponsor a Signature Ad in the NC Pride issue of Independent Weekly on September 26th, 2019. This is our only fundraiser of the year, and these funds enable PFLAG to carry out its mission. Our goal is to show that people across the Triangle support the LGBTQ community. We invite you again to join us in making this our most successful ad. In previous years, over 200 individuals and families, faith communities, businesses, and organizations participated in this signature ad. Contributions to PFLAG Triangle enable our work on behalf of the LGBTQ community with:  Support: to end discrimination and secure equal civil rights; Education: to enlighten ourselves and others; and Advocacy: to promote healthy loving relationships. This year, PFLAG Triangle held twice monthly support meetings in Durham and Raleigh, and participated in OutRaleigh! and the Transgender Day of Remembrance. PFLAG also supported Gay Prom, InsideOut, SafeSchools and held educational programs for Self-Care and Resilience, and the "Becoming Johanna" documentary and panel discussion. Our message is simple: “We the undersigned affirm the lives of gay, lesbian, bisexual, queer, and transgender people. We condemn acts of bigotry and hatred. We join PFLAG in celebrating the lives of those we love and admire; acceptance and love … family values for a lifetime.” To send a powerful message of support of LGBTQ people, signatures will be organized by religious congregations, other organizations, businesses, and individuals advocating on behalf of our LGBTQ loved ones. We are requesting a donation of $15.00 per individual, household, or non-profit organization and $30.00 per business. If you wish to charge your donation, please use this link: www.pflagtriangle.org.   We have made the ad signing process much simpler this year; it is now possible to complete your donation entirely online.
