You
Can Help Make Our Mission a Reality
NLGJA is a national organization with a local face.
Hundreds
of faces actually—the
faces of journalists, educators
and writers across the country
working to encourage fair and
accurate news media coverage of LGBT
individuals and their issues. Through
their hard work and dedication,
NLGJA’s members promote the
organization by bringing our mission
into newsrooms and journalism classrooms
across the country.
Just
as critical, our members, friends
and donors support the organization
with financial contributions
that sustain NLGJA’s ongoing
education and outreach programs
throughout the year. Your gift
to NLGJA means another student
gets to participate in our annual
Student Projects, another
newsroom can participate in the
Newsroom Outreach Project and
another member will benefit from
the news and information in the
award-winning NLGJA Outlook newsmagazine.
Whatever
your gift—$5 or $50 or $500—your
contribution sends the message
that you believe in the critical importance of fair
and accurate media coverage of
the LGBT individuals, our issues
and our community.

Matching
Contributions
Some
companies and organizations have
gift programs that match employee charitable
contributions. That means your
$50 donation could become $100
in support for NLGJA.
To find out if your employer offers
a matching gift program and how
you can participate, check with
your human resources office today.
Or, to access an online database
of companies offering matching
gift programs, visit www.matchinggifts.com.
NLGJA Scholarship Fund
The NLGJA Scholarship Fund is an endowment created to provide academic scholarships to students committed to NLGJA’s mission of fair and accurate coverage of the LGBT community.
Under the direction of the Advisory Board of the Leroy F. Aarons Journalism Education Program, NLGJA will annually award an LGBT journalism student with a scholarship to cover the tuition costs of their journalism or mass communications program.
One of the most important goals of NLGJA is to educate and mentor the next generation of journalists, and your donation will allow our scholarship recipients to have the most enriching experience possible.
