Welcome to my personal STRUT fundraising page
Ali Alkhalisi
Fundraiser
I am participating in the Foundation of Hope’s (FOH) annual STRUT walkathon on June 8th and I hope you can support me. I will be walking a mile in shoes pushing my comfort zone to raise funds to help LGBT+ refugees – Strutting my way to show support and solidarity for those who can’t!
In over 75 countries Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Trans* people are still persecuted, often facing violence, and even death, on the basis of their sexual orientation, gender identity and expression. A refugee’s journey is often a difficult one and they face more challenges when arriving in Canada. Isolation, loneliness, depression, PTSD, are not uncommon and a lot of resources are needed to help with their integration to a new life in Canada.
The funds raised through STRUT allow FOH to continue providing grants to sponsorship groups and charities directly working to support LGBT+ asylum-seekers, refugees & newcomers. Please help me reach my fundraising goal! Just click "Sponsor Me" to donate and make a difference!!
Thank you in advance for your generosity! Any contributions receive a tax receipt by email.
