Dear friend,
Just in the last year, at least five Catholic ministers and teachers in the Archdiocese of Detroit have been fired or pressured to resign from their jobs -- two for being in a gay marriage, one for being in a gay partnership, and two because they were publicly affirming of LGBTQ+ people. Families With Dignity and Dignity Detroit are joining forces in a program we call Love Always Wins to raise $5,000 to offer them financial assistance.
Families with Dignity and Dignity Detroit are entirely volunteer-run organizations. Part of our mission of support and advocacy is a commitment to workplace equality for all LGBTQ+ people employed by our churches, schools, hospitals and other Catholic institutions and agencies. All of the money raised in this fundraiser will go to ousted Church workers. Thank you!
The leadership teams of
Families With Dignity and
Dignity Detroit
