In 2005, Gay Spirit Visions launched the Evergreen Project, a program developed to provide full fall conference scholarships for gay and bisexual men from 21 to 30 years of age. Since it's inception, we have identified and invited nearly two dozen young men to experience the annual fall conference.

Maintaining the Evergreen Project has presented financial challenges for a nonprofit organization the size of GSV. This year, however, we are thrilled to announce that a donor who wishes to remain anonymous has stepped forward with a matching grant challenge. Here's how it works: the donor will match - up to $1000 - all contributions we raise for this scholarship program.

In honor of our 21st annual fall conference, please consider making a tax-deductible donation so that we can offer as many full scholarships as possible this year. Every donor who contributes $35 or more will receive a copy of Peter Grahame's inspiring book, Contemplations of the Heart. You can preview it here. The deadline for contributions is August 31, 2010.
