APPLICATION: Emergency Survival Fund for LGBTQ2S artists, performers & tip-based workers
Glad Day has set up a emergency fund to help LGBTQ2S artists, performers & tip-based workers. For December, we have set up a special HOLIDAY HELP fund that will give people with children $200 and people without children $100 to help at the holidays.
TO DONATE GO TO:
www.gladdaylit.ca
We expect to support 70-80 people with this fund. It is likely that only 1 in 3 people who apply will receive funds.

Is there anything else that you would like to share? Please don't feel the need to justify yourself or plead for support. YOU DESERVE SUPPORT. And if we had things like a Basic Income or better social supports then Glad Day wouldn't need to launch a campaign like this. So please don't feel the need to explain yourself. But let us know if there is something that we might not think about when making our decision.
