YOUR GIFT SAVES LIVES
Dear Friends,

It's not too late to give a gift this year! Consider making your donation in honor of a friend, family member, or coworker. When you do, we will send them a handwritten card or an email letting them know you have made the gift in their honor. 

You can do this when donating by credit card or by PayPal (you will be prompted) or by sending us that information with your check to Rainbow World Fund, 4111 - 18th Street, Suite 5, San Francisco, CA 94114.

Thank you for your generosity throughout 2021! 

Your continued support allows us to build bridges and accomplish our three primary goals - to provide humanitarian aid to communities in need; to increase awareness within the LGBTQ+ community of the need for these aid efforts; and to change heart and minds by demonstrating LGBTQ+ compassion and caring for the world.
HIGHLIGHTS OF 2021
Here are highlights of our work this year that your generous donations made possible:
 
  • Resettlement of LGBTQ+ refugees from Iraq and Syria
  • Shelter for Ugandan LGBTQ refugees seeking safety
  • Funding the first shelter for LGBTQ+ youth in El Salvador
  • Training nurses in Guatemala
  • Safe shelter for transgender women in Central America

Let’s continue to build upon what we’ve already accomplished. With your help we can do even more in 2022.  

Your gift of $50, $100, $500, $1,000, or more will mean that those at home or in far-distant lands will feel the support of the LGBTQ+ community. Your donation is 100% tax deductible.
