JUST FOR US!
As a gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered citizen of South Africa, YOU make our RAINBOW NATION sparkle. Which is why this flag is in your honour!
The GLBT flag serves dual purposes:
- to celebrate and maintain the liberties and the right to marry under the South African constitution.
- to address immediate and pertinent issues facing the South African GLBT community such as workplace discrimination, “corrective rape” and the myth of the “un-Africanness” of homosexuality.
Ndumie - Our Hero!
To make things even better you are assured that every item you buy will generate revenue for a GLBT cause. Our featured charity is Luleki Sizwe, run by Ndumie Funda who is heroically working to provide shelter, assistance and education whilst combatting corrective rape at a judicial level. Her work has succeeded in the government comissioning a collaborative task team with the LGBTIQ community of South Africa on homophobic hate crimes.
Get your flag now and show your true colours every day! Put it on your desk, your wall, stick in on your car or hang it from the highest balcony in your city or dorp.
