Garfzine is 100% non-profit, with all proceeds donated to charity. This year, our contributors have chosen to support Galop UK.
(TW: discussion of abuse / conversion therapy / sexual violence)
Galop is the UK’s LGBT+ anti-abuse charity. They work with and for LGBT+ victims and survivors of interpersonal abuse and violence. Galop is a service run by LGBT+ people, for LGBT+ people, and the needs of the community are at the centre of what they do. Galop has recently partnered with LUSH stores to campaign for the end to LGBT+ Conversion Therapy in the UK. Donations allow Galop to provide direct and immediate support and resources to victims of abuse as well as expand their services and campaign for the rights of LGBT+ individuals and victims of abuse.
(TW breakdown: We've included a warning with this charity because there are mentions of sensitive topics. If you have a concern about the nature of these topics, both the home page and the about (found at the top of the web page) do not feature anything graphic in nature or description, or any testimonials that may be upsetting, only mentions of the TWs, e.g.: hotlines)
The first issue of Garfzine raised over $1,000 for Mermaids UK, and we hope to raise more for Galop this year!
