50 States. 50 Grants. Inspo

Friendly reminder. The It Gets Better Project is giving away $10,000 grants to middle and high schools across the country. And in case you need some inspo to apply, we gathered some of our friends on TikTok to talk about what made a difference for them in school — from favorite teachers to queer teachers to safe spaces.

You have until March 15 to submit an application. Tell us about a project that you think will help uplift and empower LGBTQ+ students. You know what’s going to make a difference in your school — we just want to help make it happen.
