permalink Please join us in our letter writing campaign to Russia. We are sending postcards to President Vladmir Putin in a campaign to protest Russia’s Anti-LGBT laws and show support and solidarity to the Russian people.
We ask of you to share your love while doing this. Please be specific and offer suggestions. We're angry and sad, but let’s keep this action positive. We don’t want to reinforce the negative opinions, stereotypes and inaccuracies that are being spread about the LGBTQ community. Please tweet and post photos of your letters/cards so our Russian family can see them, use #LoveLettersToRussia. This is for them!
We are specifically and sincerely asking President Putin to help put an end to the violence and discrimination against LGBTQ people. Please rescind this law and stop this attack on human rights.
Mailing address:
Mr. Vladimir Putin
President of the Russian Federation
23, Ilyinka Street,
103132, Moscow, Russia
It only takes a few minutes to send a postcard. Remember that Russia has very harsh penalties against GLBTQ “propaganda” and you should avoid using the names of your Russian friends and family so we do not cause them any additional hardship. Also, check your postage rates. It’s $1.10 to send a standard sized international postcard or letter from the U.S.
