Point Foundation helps Maya Keyes:
"News

Point Foundation Awards Scholarship to Maya Keyes, daughter of Politician Alan Keyes: When Sexuality Undercuts A Family's Ties — Marc Fisher, The Washington Post, 2/13/05"

http://www.thepointfoundation.org/

This is a very worthy cause. I bet Equality Maryland referred her to this wonderful organization.

She spoke yesterday with "Equality Maryland" (another great org.) by her side.

1. Thanks for the link
I just made my first, but not my last, donation.

3. I'd never heard of this foundation before
But they've certainly got my attention now. I'm going to look into a donation. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

4. That's cool
CNN did a report on her yesterday, and it was really sad.

Keyes said some crap like "she has to live with her decisions." Ugh! :grr:

It hurt to watch.

Thanks for the link... this is good to know.

5. The Point Foundation
Scholarship opportunities for exceptional students, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.

The Point Foundation is the first and only nationwide LGBT scholarship organization that focuses exclusively on granting assistance to undergraduate, graduate and post-graduate students of distinction. Point Scholars are chosen for their demonstrated leadership, scholastic achievement, extracurricular activities, involvement in the LGBT community and financial or emotional need.
