Imagine a time when to be LGBTQ meant being denied some of the most basic human rights guaranteed under the law.
Then, imagine that time is now. Over fifty years after the birth of the LGBTQ rights movement countless LGBTQ Americans across the nation are still living in fear and often enduring acts of intimidation, hatred and violence simply for who they are.
OUR MISSION
Welcome to The Stonewall Inn Gives Back Initiative (SIGBI). We are a non-profit charitable organization inspired by the struggles and ideals of the LGBTQ rights movement born from the Stonewall Inn Uprising of 1969. We are committed to eliminating the social intolerance that is profoundly impacting the lives of LGBTQ citizens throughout America and abroad. Through awareness campaigns, educational programming, fundraising and candid public dialogue,we support grassroots organizations scattered across the country and especially those in communities where progress toward equality has been slow and the negative impact of ongoing acts of discrimination and harassment can no longer be tolerated.
