Update on Same Sex Marriage - The fight for Justice & Equality in Bermuda
The fundraising is going well in terms of funds raised to date.
However, we need a wider base of donations. So far just 142 people have donated 30,836 pounds with an average donation of 217 pounds.
If we can get 5,000 people to donate 10 pounds each, we can reach our next level target of 50,000 pounds.
In talking with the legal team, it is felt that due to the fact that our legal challenge focuses primarily on the breach of the Bermuda Constitution, it is felt the legal fight may go all the way to the Privy Council. Should that be the case, the legal costs may well approach 1 million.
WIDER BASE OF DONORS
100,000 people giving just 10 pounds will cover all legal costs.
The more supporters the better xx
What is the cost for Justice & Equality?
#HumanRights Justice and Equality are PRICELESS.
We believe there are hundreds of thousands of people, if not millions who support Marriage Equality.
ANY excess of funds pledged will be donated to charity as per the agreement with Crowd Justice funding.
Spread the word, email your friends, use social media.

#Bermuda is the 1st country to reverse Same-sex marriage. The government did so with legislation, overruling the Supreme Court of Bermuda with an Act of Parliament. Imagine your country taking away a right?
Don't think it can't happen in your country.
#HumanRights are for everyone. Everyone is entitled to the same rights. No group should have more rights than another.
History is full of battles to fight discrimination. It is therefore important, that we go to the Supreme Court of Bermuda to challenge the Domestic Partnerships legislation.
The importance of winning this legal challenge is vital not only for Bermuda and Bermudians and the #LGBTIQ+ community, but the results of the legal rulings can and will affect other people in other countries.
WE MUST WIN THIS FIGHT
