Thanks for your support in 2017

Updated: Dec 29, 2019


Thanks to you, GALA had a banner year. Some of our accomplishments:

- Partnered with 9 organizations and chartered 5 buses to take the largest contingent from DFW to Advocacy Day in Austin. - Produced a comprehensive Voter’s Guide and sponsored 4 Meet the Candidate events in two counties. - Trained over 150 straight allies on how to support our community (thank you to our amazing Ally Committee). - Hosted monthly social events at local supportive businesses in Denton, Collin and Dallas counties. - Held two trainings for youth volunteers. - Grew our social media reach through Facebook to over 5,200 followers becoming a GOTO place for information on issues affecting the LGBT+ community -- locally and beyond. - Expanded our Board of Directors, more accurately reflecting the diversity in our community. - Educated our community through events including film screenings of Gender Revolution and Upstairs Inferno. - Honored straight allies at our 2nd Annual Ally Award event. GALA Youth partnered with local Gay Straight Alliances for two successful events.

Help us continue to Celebrate Diversity and Enhance Equality in 2018 with a donation today. You can also support our work all year long with a monthly recurring donation.

On behalf of the GALA board of directors, I would like to thank you for your ongoing support and we wish you a happy and healthy New Year.

Jeanne Rubin President GALA North Texas
