A personal message from our Founding Chairperson:

HERE'S THE STORY: Edit

Okay, I have to admit, I am a "gleek", and this fundraiser is in tribute to the season episode's subject of bullying young gay and lesbian kids in school. I find it really difficult to believe that in 2012, this is happening! Yes, this has been an unfortunate issue in our culture for many, many years. But, when you add in the massive social media platforms that can now be abused, just to be MEAN to young people; to hurt them so unnecessarily, and all the pain it causes...I just have to help, somehow.

One Love,

Wendie
