The Queer community needs allies. Simple actions such as: sharing posts about and calling attention to homophobia and transphobia, refusing to support businesses that discriminate, voting for candidates that have a history of supporting the LGBTQIA community, and buying toys and books featuring queer people for the young people in your lives all help make a difference.
Nonprofits need every bit of help they can get to give us the information and resources we need. Donating time and skills are just as valuable donations as money is to these organizations.

Anything helps, even simply spreading the word. It costs nothing to share a social post.
