Our Work

In its unique and stylish way, Swish creates social change by energizing the straight and gay communities to stand together

Our programs include:

Strategic Partnerships with Like-Minded Organizations

Swish provides financial, human, and technical resources to like-minded LGBT advocacy and service organizations. We sponsor an annual nationwide volunteer drive, have raised and donated direct and in-kind contributions, and serve on the advisory boards of leading LGBT organizations.

Media Campaigns

Swish focuses its creativity on innovative public information campaigns to raise awareness of LGBT issues and bend discriminatory attitudes toward what is just and right. Our media spokespeople help ensure a gay-straight perspective on critical LGBT issues.

Public Events

Swish maintains a unique presence at public events in the United States and abroad, including LGBT rallies, marches, and festivals. We are proud to have helped coordinate the 2009 National Equality March in Washington, D.C. And we’re proud that the annual Swish benefit cabaret is quickly becoming a cult favorite!

Global Volunteer Network

Swish activates and connects its online network of supporters with LGBT-serving organizations for special projects and other ongoing volunteer needs.

Information Sharing

Swish uses its website and e-newsletter, Swish DISH, as a clearinghouse of information, press, advocacy, events, services, and support for the LGBT community.
