Let's Help the Sacramento LGBT Center In Their Time of Need
The Sacramento LGBT Center is our queer cultural and social hub here in Sactown. They just found out that they are losing $500,000 in federal funding:
"On March 24, the federal government abruptly terminated a behavioral health grant through SAMHSA that supported critical free mental health services at the Sacramento LGBT Community Center. We weren’t informed until April 1—after services had already been delivered. The sudden cancellation of our grant left us with a loss of nearly $500,000 and some incredibly hard decisions to make, without time to prepare."
The Center puts on our annual Pride events, and takes care of so many of the more vulnerable folks in our community. They're running an emergency fundraising campaign for $150,000, so we thought we'd do what we could to help.
Everyone who donates at least $20 will get:
-The River City Chronicles (eBook) - J. Scott Coatsworth
-The Archimedean Heart, The Vitruvian Mask, The Cultist's Wife. (eBooks) - B.J. Sikes
Each $100+ donation will be entered into a drawing for a bigger prize:
-Ariadne Cycle Trilogy signed first edition - J. Scott Coatsworth
-The Archimedean Heart, The Vitruvian Mask, The Cultist's Wife. signed copies - B.J. Sikes
For your freebies/contest entry, just contact Scott at the link below (see the Organizer section) and let me know how much you donated. Since this fundraiser goes directly to the Center, I do not get your emails otherwise.
I've set a starting goal of $3,500, but if we can get to $10k, that would be amazing - it's a drop in the bucket, but it's something we all can do in this moment to strengthen our queer community here in Sacramento.
I hope you will consider giving what you can!
