BEER FOR EVERYBODY & BILL 7 AWARD
Welcome back to the lineup Squeeze Play Rainbow Sherbet Sour! Bursting at the seams with the addition of FIVE fruit purees: orange, raspberry, lime, lemon AND pineapple, this version of Squeeze Play has a hint of sweetness and just a touch of lactose. It’s more than a little reminiscent of your favourite icy childhood treat and just as refreshing!
Again this year, 50¢ from every can of Squeeze Play Rainbow Sherbet Sour purchased anywhere, including the LCBO, Farmers’ Markets and bottle shops, support Bill 7 Award 2SLGBTQI+ scholarships. Until July 31st, 100% of Beer For Everybody apparel proceeds will also support this registered, charitable trust that awards scholarships to gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans, two-spirited and queer Ontario post-secondary students. Not picking up Squeeze Play or apparel but still want to support? Make a donation in the amount of your choosing at checkout, or donate directly here.
With your help, we’ve funded over $60,000 in Bill 7 Award Scholarships since 2016! Thanks to your generosity, Bill 7 has been able to increase the amount of funding to every recipient, every year, since 2021. This year 20 awards of $4,000 each are open to Ontario 2SLGBTQ+ students in financial need, pursuing their first diploma or degree!
Nearly one third of 2SLGBTQI+ students drop out of high school. One third delay attending post-secondary school due to affordability or debt. Supporting these students – financially and emotionally – increases post-secondary graduation rates. It helps them realize their full potential, and it puts them on a path to becoming the next leaders in our community.
The Bill 7 Award Trust was established in 1987 to provide post-secondary education scholarships to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, two-spirited or queer (LGBTQ) Ontario post-secondary students. The award is named after the 1986 Ontario legislation that extended the protection of the Human Rights Code to lesbians and gays.
Beer For Everybody is an initiative to showcase and support local organizations that work to dismantle systemic inequities. It is not a campaign, but rather a statement of our beliefs and a name under which we will continue to take action to uphold our commitments to equity and inclusion.
