THE STORY:
Spectrum Center U-M wrote -
The Spectrum Center is a department within the Division of Student Affairs at the University of Michigan. At the Spectrum Center we work with sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression as our framework to enrich the campus experience and develop students as individuals and as members of communities. The center was established in 1971 through the efforts of Jim Toy, the first openly gay man in the state of Michigan. In celebration of 40 years of groundbreaking work we are kicking off our fund raising campaign with this Double the Impact project. Our goal is to double our modest $15,000/year programming budget by raising $15,000 by the first day of classes on SEPTEMBER 7. Here are just some of the things we could do with a little help from you:
$100 could double our coming out support services to reach those most vulnerable in the LGBT campus community
$500 could provide a once a month facilitated dialogue for genderqueer, transgender and questioning students
$1000 could better help us prepare our student leaders to take on roles in LGBT education and advocacy as they prepare to graduate
$1,500 could allow us to establish an interactive online coming out resource for those students who are not ready to come into our office in person
And if none of the above appeal to you you can donate $10.00 for the coffee that will fuel our fire.
In honor of Jim Toy and his amazing devotion to the promotion of gay rights, and to his outstanding accomplishments in his career as gay rights activist. 3 years ago
