Although the societal contributions of this group should be celebrated year-round, we at Ethical Side Effects want to bring awareness and support by dedicating the entirety of our donations received in June 2022 to the GLMA organization, made up of healthcare professionals and community members committed to not only ensuring health equity for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and all sexual and gender minority (SGM) individuals, but they also advocate for the equality of LGBTQ+ healthcare professionals in their work environments.
