GLYS is the only organization in Western New York focused entirely on the needs of LGBTQ+ youth. So it's no wonder that numerous Buffalo-area businesses already support our work. You can join them and make a meaningful difference in the lives of LGBTQ+ people and youth across the region.
In supporting GLYS and initiatives like our Youth Leadership Program, businesses are cultivating a future workforce from a young and diverse talent base.

GLYS has been an absolutely invaluable and collaborative partner to my district in many ways. GLYS has provided consultation services and professional development training that has directly led to positive progress as our students and staff become more inclusive, more welcoming, and more appreciative of diversity.
