A BIG Thank You!

February 04, 2020

Dear Loving House Supporters & Family:

 

Thank you so much for donating to support making Loving House a Home. The students and I are incredibly grateful for your support and we are making a head way in transforming our space. If there are times when you wish to engage with our community, please do not hesitate to reach out to myself via email (tb533@cornell.edu) and we will work to set something up with you. 

 

I am looking forward to continue to develop and build relationships with our supporters!

 

Best,

Taylor

3 Days Left!

November 30, 2019

Happy Thanksgiving! Thank you to all of our amazing donors- we are at 84% ($4,200/5,000) of our goal. All of your incredible donations are going to support amazing things for the students who reside in Loving House for this year and many years to come! One area of focus is to upgrade our kitchen with appliances to support the cooking our residents do, as many do not have meal plans. 

Would you help support us reach our goal of $5,000 by sharing this amazing cause with others who you believe would be inclined to donate? We only have 3 days left to reach our goal.   

Thank you again for your donation and support of our space. We are incredibly grateful for you!

 

 

 

Thank you!

We’re at 69% of our goal, and couldn’t have done it without everyone who has supported the campaign so far. Thank you for making a gift to support Cornell's LGBTQ+ Community: Make Loving House a Home! 

 

As we are currently recruiting and accepting applications for the 2020-2021 academic year for students to live in Loving House, it is so exciting to think that these future residents will be able to benefit from your generous donations! Your donations will support resources and informational literature, enhanced programming opportunities in the space and provide artwork which will allow us to distinguish the space from other housing units through art that reflects the unique identities represented within Loving House and the larger LGBTQ+ community. Your donations will also support furnishings in our common spaces to enhance and provide a space of pride, for social gatherings, both organized and quotidian. It is so important that our community has a space to come to that is safe and inviting and gives a feeling of home. We cannot thank you enough for your support- it means the world to us!

 

As we push toward our goal, please consider sharing this campaign page with some of your social networks to help spread the word!

 

Thank you!

 

Levels
Choose a giving level

$15

Resources & Literature

It is important that Loving House provides both residents, the larger LGBTQ+ community, and allies resources about the histories, and narratives of this community.

$25

Decorations and Artwork

This allows us to distinguish the space from other housing units, through artwork, which reflects the unique identities represented within the Loving House and the greater LGBTQ+ community. Additionally, you can help create a functional and welcoming space for our community on campus.

$50

Kitchen & Appliances

Food security on campus poses stress to both the LGBTQ+ community and the larger Cornell undergraduate population. A donation of $50 or more, will ease the stress on our residents, who do not have access to dining halls or meal plans, as we provide kitchenware appliances bakeware, dishes, and pans.

$75

Programming & Events

Programs we put on, such as family dinners and bringing in queer alumni to serve as mentors and confidants, requires the purchasing of food and supplies to promote the success of the event. A donation of $75 allows us to do this, with room for exploration in advertising and production.

$100

Furniture

A donation of $100 would support the purchasing of new furniture that will create a unique identity for the Loving House. This will provide a space of pride, for social gatherings, both organized and quotidian. It is important that this community has a space to come to that is safe, inviting and gives a feeling of home.
