PRIDE 2021 -  Week 3 - Protest and Advocacy

 

The LEAGUE online auction closes today at 5PM Central.  The bids are heating up with great bids on mentors, gifts, technology, etc.  We are just $250 short of our goal of  $7K.  Please help us make our goal.  Check it out, bid, and support LEAGUE at AT&T within the organization, community and the LEAGUE Foundation

Week 3 is about Protest and Advocacy and this year LEAGUE has encouraged all members to be advocates for the community in regards to legislation against the Transgender Community.

Another way to advocate for the community is to write a note of support for LGBTQ+ youth who become homeless and seek shelter and services through the work of Covenant House.  See the below article to find out how you can participate throughout the month of June in this AT&T BELIEVES initiative.

Shop for PRIDE items as LEAGUE PRIDE Day is approaching on the 30th so 16 days and counting.

You really don't want to miss out on our PRIDE closing event which will be a Fireside Chat with Senator Charles “Chuck” Schumer taking place on June 30th.
