Help bring Courtney home!
Please read the above article and please donate to bringcourtneyhome@gmail.com through Paypal if possible. If not, we’d like to spread the word as much as possible. Locally, we are selling buttons for $1 on our campus, but we would love if the message could get spread further. Not only are we trying to bring a friend home, but we are trying to spread awareness about homeless LGBT+ youth and the struggles that they face. If you’d like to find out more about UWEC Campus PRIDE, the organization running the fundraiser, you can visit their Facebook at https://facebook.com/UWECCampusPRIDE
Though this is a local story in Eau Claire, WI, LGBT+ homelessness is a widespread problem. As stated, 20% of homeless youth in the United States are part of the LGBT+ community.
Please spread the word and donate! Any amount helps. (Also, please use the Personal - Gift option in Paypal so that there is no fee taken out on our end!)
Thank you!
Edit: 100% of the received donations through Paypal will go toward the cause. Also, as well as donations, words of support that can be forwarded to Courtney would be much appreciated by using the same email above. Thanks again!

FINAL EDIT:
Today concluded our fundraising on campus with the buttons. The Paypal will stay open until May 1st and any donations before then will be added to our total.

Love, love, love to everyone.
