One of Equality Network’s driving goals is to provide gay rights activists with the tools necessary for the success of the LGBTQ equal rights struggle. In accordance with this goal, Equality Network is providing four emerging activists with an opportunity to attend the National Equality March in Washington DC on October 11, 2009. Through the support of Equality Network, via four plane tickets and hotel accommodations, these four underprivileged women will be able to attend and participate in this historical event which has been organized to demand federal rights for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer community.

The official announcement was made at Oktoberfest, an Equality Network fundraising benefit held on October 3, 2009 at Micky’s in West Hollywood, Calif. Equality Network continues to commit itself to the betterment of the LGBTQ community. It is the organization’s firm belief that, armed with social awareness and historical knowledge of the gay rights movement, we will have the means to achieve both social and political justice and equality for all LGBTQ people.
