Rainbow Volunteer: Kelly Chen, Los Angeles, CA, USA
“When I heard about the Asia Rainbow Ride’s mission, of course I had to get involved! As a queer Taiwanese-American, it’s been heartwarming to see the strides Taiwan has made in recent years for LGBTQ+ equality. It’s my hope that we can continue doing the good work to bring in more visibility, education and advocacy — not just for LGBTQ+ Taiwanese, but also for the greater Asian LGBTQ+ community.”
Rainbow Volunteer: Kellie Simms, Portland, Oregon, USA
