Emergency Fund

Diverse group of individuals with rainbow flag.

Every 26 minutes, Rainbow Railroad receives a request for help from an LGBTQI+ person whose life and safety is being threatened because of who they are.


Last year, for the first time in our 20-year history, the number of people we supported — more than 25,000 — surpassed the number of people who requested help. We did it with support from people like you and organizations around the world.


But since the beginning of this year, we’ve received 11,846 requests for help.


That’s why this month, we are bolstering our Emergency Fund. Make a crucial 2x matched donation today. Your impact will be doubled for LGBTQI+ people in crisis.
