I met Bryce and Bobby during a walking tour of Sarajevo, learning all about Bosnia and Herzegovina’s recent political past and how the country is rebuilding. It was a heavy conversation, which called for a libation afterwards and we were all too willing to indulge with a glass of wine (or two).
It soon became apparent that Bryce, Bobby, and I all support nonprofit organizations doing important work to protect LGBTQ+ rights and individuals, including the:
Human Rights Campaign Protecting and expanding rights for LGBTQ+ individuals, by advocating for same-sex marriage, anti-discrimination and hate crimes legislation, and HIV/AIDS advocacy.
Matthew Shepard Foundation Empowering individuals to embrace human dignity and diversity through outreach, advocacy, and resource programs.
