The automotive manufacturing company donated money to the Gay Lesbian and Straight Education Network’s (GLSEN) “Rainbow Library Program,” according to a 2021 Social Impact Report published by GM.
GM funds the “Rainbow Library’s” efforts to provide “supportive curriculum materials and book sets that are LGBTQ+ centered, racially diverse, and multicultural to K-12 schools.”
“This innovative program also provides ongoing support and professional guidance for educators to create inclusive, supportive and identity-safe classrooms nationwide,” the report continued.
General Motors has not said how much was given to the organization, but in 2021 it provided “$86.7 million in cash and in-kind donations to nonprofits working to help create inclusive solutions to social issues around the world,” the Epoch Times reports.
GLSEN’s website provides a list of lesson plans, “educator guides” and professional development training for educators.
The organization has also created a “Trans Action Kit” to train students and teachers for pro-LGBTQ activism.
