Help Our Cause

🌈 In Memory of Our Founding Member, Danny Malay-Miller

Founder • Advocate • Fierce Force for Change

At Calvert Rainbow Alliance, Inc., we proudly carry forward the vision and legacy of our late founding member, Danny Malay-Miller, the unapologetic heart behind the Rainbow Backpack Project.

Danny believed that everyone deserves to be seen, supported, and safe. His compassion and bold activism live on through the work we do today, especially in our efforts to serve the hidden homeless population of Southern Maryland—many of whom are LGBTQ+.

🎒 The Rainbow Backpack Project

Our goal: Raise $10,000 to support homeless individuals and children in need.

Calvert County faces a growing but often unseen housing crisis. A large tent city, hidden deep in the woods, houses many of our most vulnerable residents; including LGBTQ+ youth and adults. Most of the community never sees them. But we do.

The Rainbow Backpack Project provides backpacks filled with essential supplies, including:

Nonperishable food
Toiletries and hygiene products
Warm clothing
Stationery and grade-specific school supplies

We believe every resident, regardless of circumstance, deserves access to basic needs. Our mission is to meet that need with dignity, pride, and love.

🫱🏽‍🫲🏾 How You Can Help

With your support, we’ll continue to distribute these life-saving backpacks and grow our reach. We are calling on:

Restaurants & farmers
Residents & families
Community groups
