World Before I go‏

Best friends, Andre here. This year I stepped down from my role as Executive Director of All Out. I am simply overwhelmed with love and pride when looking back at all the work that we’ve done together in the past five years. But now, before I write you for the very last time, I have one final wish. In order to keep our powerful campaigns for love and equality running in 2016, we need 625 people to chip in by midnight TONIGHT. Without your help, All Out’s powerful campaigns just won’t be possible. When I started All Out, I knew we’d be different from other groups fighting for equality. We work directly with our members and activists like Kasha to run campaigns together. And we hold ourselves deeply accountable to members like you,  There’s less than 24 hours left until our midnight deadline. Can you help power the fight in 2016 by chipping in €5? We'll send you a LOVE ALWAYS WINS sticker as our thanks to you. go.allout.org/en/a/love-always-wins-2015 As always, thanks for going All Out, Andre Previous email:  -------------------   Best friends, Two years ago, my government tried to pass a law imposing the death penalty for gays and lesbians. My name is Kasha Jacqueline, and I'm an activist fighting for love and equality in Uganda. As you probably know, life in Uganda is incredibly hard if you're lesbian, gay, bi, or trans. I've spent years fighting laws like the "Kill the Gays" bill and All Out members like you helped fuel my fight with hope and strength. When the anti-gay law was first proposed, you joined 260,000 All Out members to create a massive outcry against this horrendous law - thank you! And it didn't stop there. All Out members supported our Pride parade last year and funded a magazine telling the stories of the lesbian, gay, bi and trans Ugandans. We also fought back against a tabloid famous for 'outing' people, getting the huge French company Orange to stop advertising with them. But anti-gay laws are still ruining lives in Uganda and around the world. Without your help, All Out won't be able to keep up the fight in the year to come. Can you chip in €5 before midnight on December 31 so this vital work can continue in 2016? This year alone, All Out members have spoken up for so many people who faced violence and persecution just for who they are and who they love. Earlier this month, you and thousands of All Out members rallied a global outcry for Marwan, a young Tunisian student arrested and tortured by police, just for a text message he sent to another man. Thanks to you, Luc, Marwan has been freed. All Out turns five this month, and fighting against the world's harshest anti-gay laws has been the foundation of their work for these past five years. They created a huge outcry around Russia's notorious anti-gay law. And time and time again, they speak out on behalf of those arrested, tortured, and thrown in jail in countries where their love is illegal. We need to keep up the fight against anti-gay laws in 2016. But unless we raise enough from people like you, campaigns like these just won't be possible. Can you chip in €5 today? go.allout.org/en/a/love-always-wins-2015 Thanks for all that you do, Kasha Jacqueline All Out member
