We have an ambitious goal to bring 50 LGBTQI+ refugees to safety in the USA in 2023 – including 20 into the Bay Area – and we need your support.We’re excited to share more about this program with our community at an in-person supporter information session taking place on May 16 at the SF LGBT Center. At this session, you will learn more about the program and how you can participate in getting LGBTQI+ people to safety.Please RSVP to attend this session, hosted by Rainbow Railroad CEO Dr. Kimahli Powell, by clicking here.
