Dear reader,
You know firsthand the power of LGBTQ+ storytelling and journalism. From our ongoing digital coverage of issues that matter to featured highlights delivered to your inbox, you understand The Advocate’s influence and impact in being life-affirming, life-changing—and, at times, life-saving, to our community at this crucial time.
Through our award-winning journalism, The Advocate has: Highlighted the effects of the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene on a gay business owner, who lost his just-opened bar to the storm. Featured a gay softball team raising money to attend a softball world series, getting a major influx in donations following the coverage. Forced Colorado officials to apologize after covering their lack of vetting a far-right group’s request for recognition by the state’s out governor, leading to promises of better oversight.
Today, I am asking for your support. Advertisers are under increasing pressure from hate groups to pull back on their support of LGBTQ+ causes. Readers like you have the power to sustain the news and insights our community deserves and expects.
Please consider a single contribution or an ongoing pledge so that together, we can ensure The Advocate remains the nation's most trusted source of LGBTQ+ news, now and for future generations.
On behalf of our staff, I thank you for making a contribution today. Your continued support means a lot to us, and I hope you can join in this new and impactful initiative.
Best regards,
Mark Berryhill CEO, equalpride
