Wristbands for a cause? We've got one. And it's bigger than any of us. It's about using the Power of ONE to access and impact the Power in ALL of Us. It's about building bridges and creating authentic connections through these colors of awareness. STAND UP & SPEAK OUT & WEAR YOUR RAINBOW WRISTBAND! YOU can make a difference!
($3 each, 4 for $10, or a bag of 25 for $50 to hand out to your friends!)
People all over the country are wearing them! Everytime a person purchases one, we say, "Wearing this rainbow wristband is making a commitment to creating authentic connections and having deeper conversations, however that works for you!" From Catholic nuns in California, to Mayor Tom Porter in Portland, Oregon, to 98 year old Eva in New Jersey, to "the kids" Lauren & Riley, a diverse array of people are donning these. Please join us!
Here's "the kids"...Lauren & Riley with their Mom, Karen, & Two Women & a Poodle
Gay Into Straight America was a year-long journey for "Two women & a Poodle." We will continue to offer these wristbands in hopes that people who are passionate about justice and equal rights for all people, will wear them and begin to engage others in more meaningful conversations.
Dr. Martin Luther King's words still ring true today:
"Moreover, I am cognizant of the interrelatedness of all communities and states."
“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. Never again can we afford to live with the narrow, provincial ‘outside agitator’ idea. Anyone who lives inside the United States can never be considered an outsider anywhere within its bounds.”
We hope these rainbow wristbands, a never ending circle of colors, lead you to engaging others in more meaningful conversations, creating a tipping point for awareness about the value of diversity of people in our world, and how we are all interconnected. Isn't it time? JOIN US in Standing UP & Speaking OUT! Take the Stand UP Speak OUT Challengeand become a WIND CHANGER.
