Last year BeachBind attendees and the rope community raised over $1,000 for JFLAG, a LGBTQ rights organization, and this year we want to triple that!
JFLAG is doing a great deal of work for Jamaica's LGBTQ populations. One of their projects is Dwayne's House, providing physical shelter for LGBTQ youth facing homelessness, corrective rape, assault in general, trauma, and more:

J-FLAG (http://jflag.org) is the first human rights organization in the history of Jamaica to serve the needs of LGBT peoples and over time it became the first port of call for the media, resulting in J-FLAG assuming the role of the mouthpiece for the LGBT community. J-FLAG is a Non-Profit NGO that is in the business of promoting social change in furtherance of the well-being of the members of the LGBT community, through a range of internally directed and externally focused tools including: Public Education, Crisis Intervention and Empowerment; Research; Rights-based Advocacy; Legal Aid and Legal Reform.
Mission: To promote social change by empowering the Jamaican lgbt community & build tolerance for and acceptance of the LGBTQ community by the wider Jamaican society
