Five years ago, Katie Crim lost two very special people: her dad and his husband.

For many years, Kenneth Johnson and Stan Sewell were part of the Fort Worth community through the art gallery they ran here in the city. The Edmund Craig Gallery became a space where art, creativity, and community could come together.

This North Texas Giving Day, Katie and her wife, Jordan Snapka, are making a $10,000 matching gift to LGBTQ SAVES in their memory.

Their gift is helping us work toward our $15,000 North Texas Giving Day goal, while carrying forward a legacy of love, creativity, and community.

But this match is about more than the $10,000 itself. Katie and Jordan are inviting our community to join them in supporting LGBTQ+ youth.

When you make a North Texas Giving Day gift to LGBTQ SAVES, youโ€™re helping us bring even more resources to the young people we serve. Together, we can help double the impact of this generous gift and turn one familyโ€™s generosity into even more support for LGBTQ+ youth right here in North Texas.

Early Giving is already underway, so you can make your gift today:
https://www.northtexasgivingday.org/organization/lgbtqsaves

Weโ€™re incredibly grateful to Katie and Jordan for choosing to honor two beloved members of their family by supporting LGBTQ+ youth in the community they called home.

Letโ€™s help their gift go even further. ๐Ÿ’œ

Pride Month doesn't stop after the parade! DFW is keeping the energy high all June long with a packed lineup of community markets, pageants, local art, and street festivals.

From family-friendly daytime gatherings to massive nighttime block parties celebrating the beautiful intersection of Pride and Juneteenth, there is a space for everyone to celebrate, connect, and show out.

Swipe through to see a few of the major events heading to the Metroplex over the next few weeks!

Note: Look out for the ticket stub icon on our slides to see which events require a paid ticket/admission vs. which ones are completely free to attend.

Today is World Su***de Prevention Day. ๐Ÿ’›

For LGBTQ+ youth, having someone who listens, understands, and shows up can make a real difference. Su***de prevention starts with connection, compassion, and knowing how to respond when someone may be struggling.

You donโ€™t have to know exactly what to say. Sometimes, simply showing up can mean everything.

Learn more about su***de prevention, how to respond, and ways you can support LGBTQ+ youth by visiting the LGBTQ SAVES website.
