My Project

My amazing GSA (Gay Straight Alliance)-Diversity Club ☮️🏳️‍🌈 students would like to use a Button Maker Machine to create positive buttons to share throughout our middle school. This is a brand new club at our middle school and already I have students that are inspired to make a change. After participating in GLSEN's National Day of Silence, where students spread awareness about the effects of bullying and harassment of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning students, my GSA-Diversity club members want to do more and WE NEED YOUR HELP!

Students want to create homemade ALLY buttons to be distributed to teachers, staff, and students that consider themselves "allies" to the LGBTQ+ community.

The GSA-Diversity Club students will design, print, create, and distribute the Ally buttons. ☮️🏳️‍🌈
