DONATE NOW: SAVE RAINBOWJEWS
This is your opportunity to support this truly unique heritage project and ensure its survival.
Why We Need Your Support
Rainbow Jews is a volunteer-led initiative, hosted by the charity Liberal Judaism, and was so far supported generously by the Lottery Heritage Fund; the 2-year one-off grant has now finished. With the current public funding situation we need further aid from other sources to continue our work. We believe in your community spirit – and in Rainbow Jews, and we want to keep making a difference. Now we ask you, our friends and supporters, to help us make this legacy go on.
Please join our crowdfunding campaign on INDIEGOGO (extended until 15 October 2014): http://igg.me/at/rainbowjewslegacy
How Will The Money Be Spent? Your donation will help us:
– cover staff costs for a part-time project manager, who will coordinate the volunteers, and continue to promote our key activities, such as:
– getting this wonderful exhibition around the country so that we can further share these amazing stories and experiences, (We have already confirmed Leicester, Birmingham and Liverpool/Homotopia as from 31 August 2014; with more possibilities e.g. Belfast).
– create over 5 events such as launch receptions, film screenings and talks while touring.
– disseminate our education resources, and co-facilitate sessions at school, youth groups etc.
– recording and processing of over 10 new oral histories, especially of Jewish LGBT pioneers in remoter UK regions.
– collecting more memorabilia and fostering our archive collection at LMA.
What Else Can I Do?
Even if you can’t donate, or can only contribute a little, there’s still a lot you can do:
- Help get the Rainbow Jews appeal noticed! Share this campaign everywhere you can!
- Use the built-in Indiegogo share tools to spread this on your social networks.
- Become a long-term supporter! The charity Liberal Judaism is able to take donations directly. Speak to us about possibilities.
A final message from Surat, Rainbow Jews manager:
‘Please donate right now, so we can make sure that our history will not become our past.’
