We hope our mission to affirm, uplift, and create safer communities at home, school, and work will accelerate after a slow start.  Darn that pandemic lockdown!  Well, people are gathering in person again, and the best way to celebrate those moments is with Rainbow Quest! on the table.  

The recent election showed that book banning, curriculum censorship, and 'parental rights' don't matter as much to most Americans as having safer schools, less bullying, fewer hate crimes, and public education that exposes students to the real world we live in.  Christian Fuscarino, Executive Director of Garden State Equality, says this about Rainbow Quest! -- 


Rainbow Quest! is a unique, powerful, and exhilarating way to learn about milestones and heroes of LGBTQ+ history and culture. This  'whole-brain' game has impressed teachers, GSA advisors, guidance counselors, PFLAG, SAGE, Rainbow Elders, and the multitudes working to create and sustain healthy communities. 

We are an all-volunteer nonprofit with an international mission to cultivate authentic pride for those living under the umbrella of the LGBTQ+ community.  We provide the Rainbow Quest! game to schools, libraries, Gay Straing Alliances (GSAs), and community centers at discounted prices to ensure every community member enjoys this wholesome and safe way to have meaningful conversations. 

Incorporating game and group dynamics theories, we've crafted an activity that some describe as the best experience they've ever had.   Queer kids and elders alike love the vibrant look and feel of the box and love the hidden words of support that show up when you hold it just right.  Just about any 'educational' or 'therapeutic' activity usually means dull photocopies cut into pieces and distributed to teach what is usually one singular point about a gay character or event.  They've never seen anything made just for them that looks and feels so ... mainstream!

Teachers love it because it makes teaching the inclusive curriculum as easy as opening the box and beginning the game.  Students see it as a hilarious treat, put their phones away, and stop snickering soon after the fun begins.

Support and community group leaders love it because in-person gatherings are much more special, uplifting each player and building communities with opportunities for players to learn so much more about one another.  (You can play via Zoom, as well!)C

Gay gayme events love it because Rainbow Quest! is easy to learn without tedious rules, though players can develop strategies to win the game. And why play games about imaginary planets and places when you can play a game where YOU are the star?

Therapists love Rainbow Quest! because of all the social and emotional learning built into the game.  Socially awkward people gain confidence, while snarky players develop empathy.

Non-gay people love playing as well, and some even report that they have heard of the phrase 'heterosexual privilege' and never could understand what that meant until they played Rainbow Quest!

Corporate Employee Resource Groups across the country are enjoying Rainbow Quest! to create a safe space to speak openly about workplace issues that sometimes feel singular when they may be a symptom of a more significant problem.  The game can help identify issues that can be remedied to prevent the loss of LGBTQ+ talent. For identifying promotable talent to help break the 'Lavender Ceiling,' Rainbow Quest! makes it easy to see who has initiative, communication skills, strategic planning, and grace under pressure. 

And, of course, Rainbow Quest! is exciting fun! But -- we aren't 'big enough' yet to generate the revenue we need to stay involved and solvent.  Look at what we accomplish with just a few volunteers:
