Help SJ Overcome Wrongful Termination

SJ (they/them) was suddenly and wrongfully fired from their dream job in Yosemite National Park by the federal government. SJ was fired for hanging a trans pride flag off of the famous El Capitan with a small team. When SJ hung the flag, they were on their off time, neither said nor did anything to hint that they worked for the federal government, and did not violate any laws. Firing SJ for hanging a flag is a violation of their first amendment right!

This sudden news has shocked and sent waves through the small community of Yosemite employees. SJ has always been a beloved and valued member of the community not only in their role on the clock, but in the numerous ways they’ve shown up for their neighbors, friends, visitors, and the climbing community.

The funds donated here will help SJ stay on their feet as they navigate this rapid and unexpected transition to unemployment. They will be used for bills, groceries, and lawyer costs.

Thank you in advance for your support!
