One Anchorage Fun Run for EqualityJoin One Anchorage for a Fun Run for Equality on Sunday, January 29 from 9:00-11:00 AM. Join us for a fun walk, run, ski, or bike ride or just come for warm refreshments and food. It’s a great opportunity to make a donation to One Anchorage! (You can also contribute online.)

Hosted by Anne Ver Hoef, Pamela Richter, Phyllis Rhodes, Karen Williams, Kent Williams & Trevor Storrs.

One Anchorage is the campaign to gain passage of the Anchorage Equal Rights Initiative, which will, if passed, amend Anchorage’s equal rights code to provide the same legal protections against discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or transgender identity that are already provided based on race, color, sex, religion, national origin, marital status, age, physical disability, and mental disability. The measure is on the April 3 Anchorage municipal ballot. Be sure to vote for equal rights on April 3!
