Dear RWF Friends,

Like the rest of the world, Rainbow World Fund's Board of Directors is devastated by the senseless attack on the Pulse nightclub this past weekend in Orlando, Florida.  Our hearts go out the victims, their families and friends, and to our global LGBTQ and friends family. Rainbow World Fund was founded on the belief that we are all one human family and in the days ahead, it is our hope that we can all find comfort and strength in this truth.  

HELP THE VICTIMS OF THE ORLANDO SHOOTING


 
We stand in solidarity with our brothers and sisters in Orlando. Tragedies create many financial needs through loss of work, medical costs not covered by insurance, and funeral costs. Rainbow World Fund is currently working with organizations in Orlando that are providing aid to the victims and their families. If you would like to help, please consider making a tax-deductible donation our secure website or by mailing a check. Please specify "Orlando".

We are committed to ensuring that all LGBTQ people are accepted fully wherever they live, and that the world will see that our community is one of peace, hope, and love.
