Barbells Not Bans is a very queer annual deadlift fundraiser and competition raising money for three Virginia-based LGBTQIA+ and reproductive justice organizations working towards a Virginia for all: Equality Virginia, He She Ze & We's Trans Wellness Fund, and Richmond Reproductive Freedom Project.
This will be my 4th year competing and it is always such a joyful and supportive event! My goal is to raise $1 for every pound I’ve deadlifted.
