Please support the Gay Games movement!

An end-of-year message from the FGG:

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of joining the board of the Federation of Gay Games. I am honored to be able to contribute to the Gay Games movement. I know that you too want to do your part.

In these last days of 2011, we can look back at the Gay Games with great satisfaction. A little more than a year ago more than 8,500 participants from over 70 countries came together to celebrate the principles of participation, inclusion and personal best at Gay Games VIII in Cologne, Germany. Those Games enabled everyone who participated of us to express themselves openly, to promote equality, and to experience camaraderie through sports and culture.

Gay Games VIII was just the latest in our nearly 30-year history of empowerment: since Gay Games I in 1982 the Gay Games have empowered tens of thousands of gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and allied athletes and artists through fellowship and friendly competition.

We encourage you to join us and become a crucial component in the ongoing and important work of the FGG, which will enable us to continue to change the lives of men and women throughout the world.

No gift is too small: even a ten dollar donation can make a difference.

Please click here gaymes.info/donatefgg if you would like to make a one-time or recurring donation online (tax deductible for US taxpayers).

On behalf of the board, assembly, and the entire Gay Games family, we wish you and yours Happy Holidays and a New Year filled with prosperity and success.

Dave Killian
FGG Officer for Development
