I'll ORGANIZE an event in MY TOWN
on ADD the WORDS January 28 Day of Vigils, Rallies and Events




Below are photos
from last year
:

Last year in 11 Idaho towns people held vigils and events in support of ending discrimination against gay and transgender people.

Watch for a schedule of Saturday January 28 events so far in Nampa, Weiser, Idaho Falls, Twin Falls, Moscow, Coeur d'Alene, Lewiston, Pocatello and Caldwell. You can help turn people out for these events. For local contact information check back here or contact Cody 208 490 0570. cody@4idaho.org

If you have even a little time, gathering 10 friends and family and organizing a small candlelight vigil or event in YOUR Idaho town can be a very powerful way to support your gay & transgender friends! Let Cody know! cody@4idaho.org

Take a photo and email it to us and to your local paper.

Let's make this year strong and send a message to the legislature that it is time now to include gay & transgender people in Idaho's human rights act!

THANK YOU IDAHO! We can do this!
