I've seen ads for Equality Florida on Facebook (I live in Florida) and have wondered about the group. It's good to see that it's a legit group that I can feel comfortable donating to.

To the OP: I can't pretend to understand what you must go through on a daily basis with all the haters, but I care and I support you.
