What do you do with the donations from Equality Champions?
The monthly support from Equality Champions gets channeled into the most urgent fight for LGBT+ rights we're facing that month. Here's just one example of how that has worked in the past:
In April of 2017, a terrifying message came from partners in Russia: gay men were being kidnapped and killed in Chechnya. More than 100 men had been arrested under suspicion of being gay. They were being held in an illegal prison and tortured. At least three men had been murdered.
All Out was one of the first groups to mobilize with partners on the ground in Russia. There's simply no way we could have jumped into action so quickly without the steadfast support of our most dedicated members: Equality Champions.
With their support, we were able to help collect over 2 million signatures demanding justice for the Chechen men who were captured and tortured.
When attempting to deliver the signatures, our activists were detained by police in Moscow. But we were determined to keep fighting.
We were able to act fast and rally All Out members to speak out for the release of our activists. Once they were out, we didn't stop there.
All Out members collectively funded our partner's emergency evacuation costs for those at risk in Chechnya. Dozens of people whose lives were at risk were relocated to safety.
And when the arrests and torture started back up again in late 2018, All Out members once again responded with profound generosity, funding another emergency evacuation of anyone in urgent danger.
This type of work boosts the unbelievable strength and defiance of LGBT+ activists who risk so much in their fight for justice in Chechnya and Russia. But none of it would have been possible without the ongoing support of Equality Champions.
