Summary

The Embracelets program was started in July 2022 as a way for allies to connect with LGBTQ people and remind them they are loved. These hand-crafted friendship bracelets are handed out at Pride and Mental Health events as a simple gesture of connection and care. By donating you support makers in sending love to those seeking us out at events. In 2023 21,000 Embracelets were shared with LGBTQ people. Help us cover operation costs and scholarships for makers and consider becoming a monthly donor!

Challenge

Queer people who come from non-affirming homes need to be reminded that they are loved. Embracelets are physical reminders that they can wear, that someone put effort and care into them.

Solution

People who receive an Embracelet will be reminded that they are loved and given hope.

Long-Term Impact

Last year we handed out over 20k Embracelets. Our goal is to maintain or exceed that number and give hope to more LGBTQ individuals annually.
