Hi Luc –
This is shocking: 96% of all Ugandans think that lesbian and gay people should NOT be accepted by their community or country.
That means facing a lot of violence and hate for who you love. It means living in fear or hiding.
And it means that until millions of Ugandans change their minds, laws like the "Kill the Gays" bill will always have huge support.
So, we're going to help fix that – now. Here's how:

24 hours left! If you think it could work, chip in any amount now:

All Out's teamed up with amazing partners in Uganda – kickstarting a never-before-seen storytelling campaign to combat anti-gay hate in Uganda.
And the next stop? The rest of the world.
One year ago, more than 3,600 of us donated to make sure Russian organisers could keep fighting their anti-gay propaganda law. Together, we got them the funds they needed to fight the law, protect themselves from legal and physical threats, and support young people in their communities.
Those donations also helped power All Out's groundbreaking global campaign to make sure Russia's anti-gay laws dominated all national and international coverage of the Olympics in Sochi. (And just last week, in response to our campaign, the International Olympics Committee announced that they're changing their rules so cities with discriminatory laws can't host the Games!)
So far, more than 1,601 All Out members have chipped in to power the fight in Uganda. That's incredible. Will you join in now to help get us there?
It doesn't matter how much you give – every one of us should be proud to be a part of this movement, because we all step up whenever we're needed most.
– Andre, Jeremy and the rest of the All Out team.
P.S. All Out's member-funded – that means every individual donation goes to powering groundbreaking global campaigns. It also means governments and corporations can't tell us what to do because we won't take their money. If we want to be 100% independent and running on individual donations AND funding amazing, grassroots groups on the ground, changing lives – we all need to step up chip in now: https://www.allout.org/All-Out-4-Uganda SOURCES:
