Reminisce about one of the most impactful events from our UTOPIA Youth Program: a retreat camp where our youth gathered to bond, think, and develop in an environment designed by them, for them. This was a place of joy, honesty, and cultural reaffirmation, not just a weekend getaway. a place where our children and young adults could be accepted by the community and express themselves fully. We hold fast to our conviction that our children deserve places that honor them in an era when there is far too much discussion about our existence. Our Youth Program keeps establishing those environments—where strong bonds are formed, identities are respected, and leadership is fostered. This video is a glimpse into the power of what happens when our youth are supported and seen. We hope it reminds you, like it reminds us, why this work matters so deeply. (fb)

✨Diwali in Fiji is more than a festival—it's a celebration of unity in diversity. Recognized as a public holiday, it brings together communities across the nation, including Fijians of Indian descent and beyond. From vibrant decorations and cultural performances to fireworks and sweet treats, Diwali lights up Fiji with joy, hope, and togetherness—at home and abroad 🪔🎆 This year, giving to LGBTQIA+ organizations is more crucial than ever.
