60 in 6: The Campaign for Repeal
I hope you tuned in last night to see Army Sergeant Darren Manzella, and other brave gay patriots who have served in our armed forces, talk to 60 Minutes about life under “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and the fight to repeal this un-fair and un-American law. All of us at SLDN are inspired by the courage of these service members and veterans, and we are more committed than ever to winning the battle for fairness in our military.
Now, we need you to join Darren and SLDN to get rid of the ban on gay troops.
You can become an important part of our efforts by joining our 60 in 6 campaign. Over the next 6 days, we want to raise enough funds to help 60 more service members like Darren. We will put your tax-deductible gift to immediate use by providing free legal services to our troops and lobbying Congress to repeal this law.
SLDN never charges for our services, and we never turn away a service member impacted by “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.” Providing that critical lifeline, however, can cost up to $10,000 per client. Add to that the support we need to make our lobbying, grassroots and communications efforts a success, and you’ll understand why we need your help to win this historic victory. With allies from across the country, we are making progress.
If you were moved by Darren’s story, and as inspired by his courage, as we were, please consider a gift of $60, $600 or even $6000 in support of SLDN’s work. Your gift will help ensure we make repeal a reality.
Every day, SLDN is proud to stand up for men and women like Darren and work to end “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.”
Join Us.
