Fundraiser for G.L.I.T.S.

Tax deductible
https://www.glitsinc.org/ 

Want to join us in making a difference? The Yale Graduate Society of Women Engineers is raising money to the benefit of the Gays and Lesbians Living in a Transgender Community (G.L.I.T.S.). Any donation will make help a HUGE impact as The Simons Foundation will match the amount raised 1 to 5! 
Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to us.

More information about G.L.I.T.S.: We approach the health and rights crises faced by transgender sex workers holistically using harm reduction, human rights principles, economic and social justice, along with a commitment to empowerment and pride in finding solutions from our own community. We address issues of immediate need/crisis support for transgender sex workers, including community members from the NYC area. We also address health care and health resilience for transgender sex workers. We need to address this issue
because our community is marginalized and has a profound need for safe sex
supplies and free/low-cost health to address both trans-specific and
holistic needs. We also work on housing since so many in our G.L.I.T.S. community are without stable housing. G.L.I.T.S. also advocates and educates to ensure the health, wellness, and inclusion of transgender people in our society and to address the stigmatization and criminalization of trans people. Project Prosper is our fiscal sponsor, a 501 (c)3 organization.

Project Prosper: Project Prosper is a unique grassroots organization founded locally in Tampa Bay in 2007 by Robin Warren and Ann Haendel. Motivated by the lack of financial education and experiential learning programs targeting immigrants and refugees in our community these two extraordinary women developed the idea of Project Prosper. Mission: To provide financial integration services and resources that empower recent immigrants and refugees in our community to achieve financial stability.
