Dear reader,

If you are thinking of making any year-end charitable donations, please consider supporting the work of Erasing 76 Crimes.

This news site is the product of LGBTQ rights activists who work as journalists in order to provide you with the facts about the human toll of 64+ countries’ anti-gay laws and the struggle to repeal them.

If you decide to support our work, your U.S. tax-exempt donation will go through the St. Paul’s Foundation for International Reconciliation, our U.S charity (California 80-0647355) working to advance LGBTQ equality and acceptance in Africa and the Caribbean through media advocacy.

In addition to this news site, we also produce a version in French (76crimesFR.com) and a site focused exclusively on Africa (RightsAfrica.com).

The work of our activist journalists lays the groundwork for Project Not Alone, which has fed and freed 46 innocent imprisoned victims of African homophobia.

Their work has also made possible the free counseling app Qtalk, which serves about 2,500 LGBTQ Nigerians on Android phones and iPhones.
