Disguise Pride
Disguise is raising money to benefit Rainbow Railroad USA, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to us.

More information about Rainbow Railroad USA: Around the world LGBTQI+ people continue to face oppression; in almost 70 countries there are laws that criminalize same sex intimacy and discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. In eight countries same sex intimacy is punishable by death. The global refugee crisis is exasperating the plight of LGBTQI people worldwide. Rainbow Railroad exists to provide a solution to this problem, to provide solutions for individuals facing imminent danger and to get them to safety.

disguise is committed to supporting Pride this year, to enable everyone to live in a world where they BELONG.

To support this, last year at disguise we ran a competition to design a Pride t-shirt logo. We now have this fab logo printed on our very own Pride t-shirts! Everyone who donates to this very worthwhile cause will get one of these shirts to wear with PRIDE. So please do give what you can to help support this very worthy cause.

Raising Funds to assist LGBTQIA humans to safety

Rainbow Railroad believes that governments around the globe should enact and enforce laws and policies that protect LGBTQI individuals and enable them to live in freedom and safety in their own country. However, until that day arrives, our organization is focused on providing solutions for LGBTQI people who need immediate assistance because they are facing a serious threat to their lives and safety.

What they do

Rainbow Railroad verifies each case, learn about the circumstances of the individual facing persecution and determine how we can help.

They determine effective routes to safety, and connect with local contacts who can provide pre-travel and logistical support.

They provide travel to their destination country and immediate, bridging post-travel support on arrival.

It costs approximately $10,000 to help an LGBTQI person find safety. Let's shoot to assist at 1 human to safety and continue to raise funds from there to assist as many community members as we can.

Bryan & Derek's Wedding Fundraiser for Rainbow Railroad
Instead of wedding gifts, we hope you will consider donating to our fundraiser for Rainbow Railroad, an organization that helps LGBTQI+ people facing persecution around the world find refuge in safer countries.

While we are incredibly lucky to get married with the love and support of those around us, we also cannot forget that anti-LGBTQI+ hate is on the rise all over the world. Your donations will help people who are trying to escape from state-sanctioned violence, discrimination, or loss of freedom. Rainbow Railroad responds to thousands of urgent requests for help each year, and they provide emergency travel, safe shelter, crisis response, and resettlement pathways for LGBTQI+ individuals with nowhere else to turn.

Join the Fight for LGBTQIA Safety with Rainbow Railroad
I'm raising funds for Rainbow Railroad, an organization that helps to get LGBTQ+ people out of tough situations such as police persecution due to where they live. They've helped to relocate over 13000 people over the last 18 years, but there are still so many more to help. Anything you can help give is appreciated.

About Rainbow Railroad

What we do

Rainbow Railroad is a global not-for-profit organization that helps at-risk LGBTQI+ people get to safety worldwide. Based in the United States and Canada, we’re an organization that helps LGBTQI+ people facing persecution based on their sexual orientation, gender identity and sex characteristics. In a time when there are more displaced people than ever, LGBTQI+ people are uniquely vulnerable due to systemic, state-enabled homophobia and transphobia. These factors either displace them in their own country or prevent them from escaping harm.

As a result of Rainbow Railroad, more LGBTQI+ individuals can access lives free from persecution, and ultimately, we envision a world where LGBTQI+ people can live lives of their choosing, free from persecution.

Since our founding, we’ve helped over 13,000 LGBTQI+ individuals find safety through emergency relocation, crisis response, cash assistance, and other forms of assistance. Our story has received international media attention, including a feature on CBS 60 Minutes .
