VirtualSTRUT is over for 2021.
Thanks to our many donors and corporate partners, we raised $48,705 to support our LGBTQ+ Refugees & Newcomers worldwide. A huge thank you goes out to our organizing committee, Barb Snelgrove, and Drew & Jason from Tuck Entertainment.
Thanks to our friends at Vancity and TD Bank for their exceptional generosity. It allows us to ensure that 100% of our grassroots donations go directly to grants. Each grant we award goes to a specific case of urgency faced by asylum seekers and refugees worldwide, along with resettlement support programs all across Canada. It has amounted to $312,581 to date with applications under review by the volunteers in our diverse LGBTQ+A community.
