Support HOPES: A Beacon of Hope and Advocacy
"I had never been to a health care facility since coming out, so I was very nervous. Tori, my provider, was super sweet and very affirming, that was very comforting. That made the whole process very easy.” — HOPES Patient
HOPES is critical to our LGBTQ+ friends here in northern Nevada and the Sierra. Many people are feeling stressed like never before and are seeking safe and supportive spaces. HOPES is that place. Thanks to generous supporters like you, we continue to provide help when our LGBTQ+ neighbors need it.
We began 28 years ago as a HIV clinic, quietly caring for individuals who didn't want their HIV status to be outed. We never shouted our work from the rooftops; instead, we quietly did the work, created community, and consistently advocated for our patients and their care, even when no one knew or saw. We remained committed to serving whoever walked through our doors, with dignity, compassion, and best-in-class services.
Today, we operate three sites, serve 17,500 patients, and we are back to our roots, quietly crusading for our patients while continuing to care for them and advocate for their needs. Our work may not be loud, but it is powerful and unwavering. We are committed to ensuring all people who come to HOPES drive their care, partner with us to achieve their health goals and live fulfilling lives, free from judgment.
This year, our goal is to raise $50,000 to continue serving our LGBTQ+ community.
The way we serve the community includes primary care, sexual health care, walk-in STI testing, HIV prevention services, behavioral health counseling, substance use counseling, and support groups. The Barry Frank Family Gender and Sexual Healthcare Clinic provides gender-affirming resources, case management, and financial support for individuals transitioning. This is a reality because of YOU!
Will you commit to HOPES and stand with us as we fight for the people that need us? Give OUT is more than just a fundraising campaign; it's a movement to ensure that everyone in our community receives the dignified care they deserve. With your help, we can amplify our message and continue to stand by those who need us most. These unprecedented times need new strategies. We will be working hard to build a greater network of support for our patients and programs.
Help us OUT and we will continue to help ALL:
O = Be Outspoken: Create your own fundraising page and invite your friends, family, and colleagues to contribute. Your personal touch can make a world of difference.
U = Unify in Giving: Dr. Barry Frank Family is matching every donation up to $10,000. This means your efforts will have double the impact!
T = Talk it Up: Spread the word. Share your fundraiser on social media, email, and any other platforms you use. Let your circle know why HOPES matters to you and how they can get involved.
Together, we can build a healthier community and ensure that everyone in our community feels seen, valued, and supported.
Thank YOU for all the ways you support us!
