HBO Donates $100K to LGBTQ Groups in TX, UT, FLA, MS & NJ, Where ‘We’re Here’ Filmed

HBO donated $100,000 for regional, national, and local LGBTQ+ organizations in conjunction with the award-winning unscripted series We’re Here.

The donations will benefit LGBTQ non-profits in the locations where the show recorded its third season.

PFLAG Fort Worth, MS Capital City Pride, Pride of Southern Utah, TriVersity Pride Center, Equality Florida, and Lambda Legal are among the organizations receiving the donations.

**Bob the Drag Queen, Eureka O’Hara**,and **Shangela** filmed in **Texas, Utah, Florida**, **Mississippi**, and **New Jersey**, to promote acceptance and raise awareness.

The season was shot during the beginning of a contentious period for LGBTQ people as right-winger and conservative Republicans targeted the community with disdain for trans people and drag queens.

Queer people, especially those who are trans, have been falsely accused of grooming children by the far-right. Local groups protested the show happening in their towns.
