Cyndi Lauper´s True Colors Fund Launches Campaign to Spur Straight Support for Gay, Lesbian Bisexual and Transgender Equality
Cyndi Lauper, Elton John, Whoopi Goldberg, Jason Mraz, Cynthia Nixon, Anna Paquin, Sharon & Kelly Osbourne, Judith Light, Kim Kardashian, Clay Aiken, Wanda Sykes, and others join forces in Give a Damn Campaign Video Series
April 1, 2010 [NEW YORK] Cyndi Lauper´s True Colors Fund today launched the Give a Damn Campaign (www.WeGiveADamn.org), a bold, web-based initiative with the goal of educating and engaging the straight community in the advancement of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender equality. The call-to-action campaign kicks off with the release of its first series of videos which feature Cyndi Lauper, Elton John, Whoopi Goldberg, Jason Mraz, Cynthia Nixon, Anna Paquin, Sharon & Kelly Osbourne, Judith Light, Kim Kardashian, Clay Aiken, Wanda Sykes, Eric Roberts, and Kevin Alejandro expressing why they Give a Damn about equality.
"In my life I´ve crossed paths with many different people and I´ve seen firsthand what it means to be discriminated against," said Cyndi Lauper, True Colors Fund co-founder. "I´ve come to realize equality means a lot to people who don´t have it and that, as a straight person, I have a responsibility to stand up for gay and transgender people each and every day. We all have to get involved; we all have to give a damn."
The Give a Damn Campaign´s debut video series, produced by Red Thread Productions, directs viewers to wegiveadamn.org, an innovative and interactive website designed by Purple Crayons, where they are presented with ways they can get informed and get involved.
The site is designed as an easy to understand introduction to the issues affecting the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community. In addition to the video component, wegiveadamn.org features three important sections: the Damn Blog, which is updated daily to keep readers informed on breaking news and ways to get involved, Personal Stories, where visitors can read about why other people support equality and how inequalities have affected their lives and Damn Issues, where visitors can learn about the issues that matter most to them.
Wegiveadamn.org also functions as a helpful tool for people to get involved in advancing equality. In particular, visitors are urged to reach out to the straight people in their lives to encourage them to show their support. Through the use of the site´s "Tell a Friend" feature and social media tools like Facebook and Twitter, users are able to easily share any of the videos, personal stories or other content that will best assist them in opening a dialogue about equality with the people in their lives. Additional opportunities to get involved are available through partnerships with an array of non-profit organizations. One of the easiest things visitors can do to support equality is join the Give a Damn Campaign. By providing their email address visitors can stay informed and stay involved, as well as enjoy a personalized and customized version of wegiveadamn.org.
"Our focus is to open a dialogue with everyone, especially the straight community, who may not be fully aware of the inequality facing gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Americans. The Give a Damn Campaign will help bridge that gap," said True Colors Fund Executive Director Gregory Lewis. "´Equality for all is the basis upon which this country was built and it can only be achieved if we all get informed and get involved."

MatthewsPlace.com Launch Starts National Dialogue on Disenfranchised LGBTQ Youth with Local Events Throughout the Country
DENVER, CO The Matthew Shepard Foundation today announced the launch of MatthewsPlace.com, a comprehensive online resource for LGBTQ youth in America. The website is launched on October 12, 2007, the ninth anniversary of Matthew Shepard´s passing, with a series of local events throughout the country and an online video stream featuring Judy Shepard, executive director of the Matthew Shepard Foundation.
"MatthewsPlace.com is a dream come true for the Matthew Shepard Foundation and hopefully for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, questioning and allied youth all over the country," said Shepard. "It is a safe online place full of critical resources and information, a place where LGBTQ youth can see themselves reflected in our society, feel affirmation, and gain insights to help them lead healthy, productive, hate-free lives."
Designed with a great deal of youth involvement, MatthewsPlace.com features up-to-date national and LGBT news, advice columns from notable voices and affirming resources on issues affecting LGBTQ youth, and an information hub for youth to access critical resources such as safe and inclusive direct-service providers, homeless shelters, and youth-serving organizations. This is the first of three phases of Matthew´s Place. In the coming year, the website will expand to include more interactive and cutting edge elements such as blogging, moderated chats, expanded ´ask the experts´ section, and individual youth spaces.
In connection with the launch, the Matthew Shepard Foundation and the National Association of LGBT Community Centers have partnered to host a conversation, via online video stream, with Judy Shepard about the realities facing disenfranchised and homeless LGBTQ youth in America.. More than 25 local events nationwide will celebrate the site´s launch and discuss critical issues facing LGBTQ youth. For a full list of local events, visit http://www.matthewsplace.com/.
Mistreatment, violence, and harassment of LGBT young people is a pervasive problem. According to GLSEN´s National School Climate Survey in 2005, nearly two-thirds of LGBT young people felt unsafe in school and over one-third had been physically harassed because of their sexual orientation. And for too many youth the home is not much safer or more welcoming. Some studies estimate that as many as half of LGBT teens experience negative reactions from their parents upon coming out, and nearly one-third have suffered physical violence by a family member.
For more information about this new online resource, visit http://www.matthewsplace.com/. Matthewsplace.com was designed by Purple Crayons Interactive, Inc based in Evergreen, Colorado. The Matthew Shepard Foundation was founded by Dennis and Judy Shepard in memory of their 21-year-old son, Matthew, who was murdered in an anti-gay hate crime in Wyoming in October 1998. Created to honor Matthew in a manner that was appropriate to his dreams, beliefs and aspirations, the Foundation seeks to "Replace Hate with Understanding, Compassion, and Acceptance" through its varied education, outreach, and advocacy programs.
