Fund race registrations for 50 LGBTQ+ runners in Taxco's inclusive 5km! Your donation covers entry fees, runner kits, and hydration for trans/non-binary athletes breaking barriers in sports. Together, we'll race toward equality!
In Mexico, LGBTQ+ athletes face exclusion from mainstream sports. Our Taxco 5km race creates the first safe space for trans/non-binary runners in Guerrero, where discrimination denies 72% access to sports (CONAPRED.org.mx). Your support funds registrations for 50+ marginalized athletes to compete visibly and proudly.
This project will establish Taxco as a model for LGBTQ+ inclusion in Mexican sports, inspiring future events. Long-term, it empowers 200+ athletes annually to compete openly, reduces stigma (CONAPRED reports 68% discrimination in sports), and builds ally networks for lasting social change.
Proactively promote and strengthen a social environment that respects human rights, where diversity is recognized as a value, with emphasis on the development of vulnerable groups such as young people, people with HIV, men who have sex with other men, the LGBT community, community of people deprived of their liberty, through the promotion of sports, positive models of coexistence and collaboration with indigenous government institutions and key actors of civil society. Our vision is a leader in the social response to community problems, reinforcing the visibility of diversity in Mexico, and being a benchmark for the development of linkage strategies with local, national and international initiatives in the promotion and defense of human rights and elimination of all types of discrimination, through the positioning of visibility strategies for problems related to vulnerable groups, specifically diversity, and the creation of synergies between the key actors that involve the communities as part of the solution to their needs.
