Triple Your Impact for LGBTQ+ Youth This Season

Our End of Year Giving Campaign starts with incredible momentum — and your support can go up to 3X further to help us reach our $35,000 goal by December 31st.

Thanks to the generosity of several donors, your gift today can be matched in powerful ways.

🌟 Your Gift Is Matched Up to 3X

Here’s how your donation multiplies by two of our generous donors:

• Anonymous donor will contribute $2-for-$1 Match up to $10,000

• Rachel Asbury Cole & Mitchell Cole will contribute to 1:1 Match up to $6,000

That means:

• $25 becomes $75

• $50 becomes $150

• $100 becomes $300

• $250 becomes $750

Together, these matching opportunities can unlock $16,000 in additional support for LGBTQ+ youth across Virginia.

💙 Why Your Gift Matters

When you give to Side by Side, you ensure LGBTQ+ youth and their families have access to:

• Safe and affirming support groups

• Free Counseling for youth navigating crisis

• Education and tools for parents and caregivers

• Hot meals, snacks, and supplies

• Housing and resource navigation

• Community-wide trainings that make Virginia safer for youth

Every dollar helps create spaces where young people feel seen, supported, and never alone.

💖 A Strong Start — Thanks to You

Your Giving Tuesday gifts raised $7,255, and longtime supporter Jeff Smith matched that entire amount — doubling the impact and giving us a powerful start to this campaign.

Now, with additional matching gifts on the table, your support has the power to carry us across the finish line.
