We're raising funds and awareness for IRAQI LGBT headquarters in London, England
"The lack of funds is a perpetual problem. Three of the five safe houses in Baghdad had to close last year because of a
lack of donations to keep them running. Two have since been reopened but it is a constant struggle to fund them. Money is
needed to pay rent, electricity and food bills for the 10-12 LGBT refugees who are crammed into each house. Many more LGBT
Iraqis still need a place to hide."
