Dear Daniel, As a four-time Olympic gold medalist and five-time world champion, I have proven that I never back away from a challenge. But many lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Californians find every day to be a challenge as they struggle to be treated equally. That’s just not right. So I’m joining Equality California to do something about it. One month from today, together with 50 other swimmers, I’m tackling a 1.7 mile swim in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Malibu. We share the same mission: raise critical visibility and funds for LGBT rights in California. Our goal is to raise $100,000. Be a champion and donate to the Swim for Equality now! Your gift will help inspire the swimmers as they compete—and will also enable Equality California to fight for LGBT Californians. Can I count on you to support all the swimmers by making a donation today in support of our efforts? EQCA is on the front lines building a state of equality in California by organizing thousands of volunteers going door to door in communities across the state, gaining support for marriage equality by having one-on-one conversations. And EQCA is in Sacramento, lobbying for 16 bills that expand protections for LGBT Californians—to add to the 60 that they have all ready passed. You can be a champion and help achieve equality— make your donation to help all LGBT Californians cross the ultimate finish line—equality. What are you waiting for? Dive in! Yours,
