Today is a double donation day! Donate to any of the #SweatWithPride campaigns we've shared in the thread below, and your contribution will be doubled.

Get in there and help fund queer healthcare in Aotearoa! 🏳️‍🌈👇🏳️‍⚧️
Remember that while pride is a celebration, it is also a rebellion. In 2025, the rights of queer and especially trans people are in jeopardy. There is no greater time to stand by those who are just fighting for the right to exist. ✌️
