Triangle Program a Beneficiary of the Pride and Remembrance Run on July 2, 2011

The Pride And Remembrance Association has announced the 2011 beneficiaries of this year’s Pride Run.

This year’s Run proceeds will benefit the AIDS Committee of Toronto (ACT) and The Triangle Program. A portion of this year’s proceeds will also go towards the newly established Pride and Remembrance Foundation. The goal for this year’s run is to break an all-time fundraising record of $110,000. Proceeds from the 2011 Run will support the expansion and diversification of Triangle Program’s library and speaker series as well as the development of print resources aimed at a youth audience.

Check out GLSEN’s “Think B4 You Speak” Campaign

“The rate at which students use and hear negative language about lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender (LGBT) people is huge. Over half of all students report hearing homophobic remarks often at school” (GLSEN – thinkb4youspeak.com)

Check out GLSEN’s “Think B4 You Speak” campaign to find out how the language we choose to you has potential consequences for our LGBT youth.

GLSEN, the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network, is the leading US education organization focused on ensuring safe schools for all students. It is an excellent organization, with lots of statistics and resources.

Triangle Program is Looking for Math Tutors

Many of our students stopped attending school regularly at an early age due to homophobia and transphobia. Due to that disconnect, many of our youth have huge gaps in their numeracy skills. We need math tutors so that our youth can get more one on one support to enable them to be successful in mathematics.
