I have been blessed...   

By the opportunity  to work with some amazing people at some amazing organizations.  These groups are all doing work with some of the New York Metro Area's most vulnerable populations, and every one of them needs the help of people like you and me.  Take a moment to look at their website, get to know their programs, and maybe even help out by volunteering your time, your talent, or your treasure.

Merci.


The Imperial Court of New York

Picture
Of course, I have to start with my home:  The Imperial Court of New York.  For more than 25 years, this group of men, women, transfolk have presented themselves as a parody of a royal court to help raise awareness and funds for organizations doing critical work in our community.  Their jewels may not be real, but their dedication to helping others and their service to the community is very very much so.

Click on their logo to visit their website, and save March 31, 2012 -- Night of a Thousand Gowns, the biggest, most glamorous , most outrageous fundraiser of the year!

New Alternatives

New Alternatives for LGBT Homeless Youth was created in October, 2008 by a group of volunteers and professionals with experience working with homeless LGBT youth in various shelter and transitional housing settings. The mission of the organization is to increase the self-sufficiency of homeless LGBT youth to enable them to “go beyond” the shelter system. We intend to do this by providing case management, community organizing, life skills groups, community-building recreational activities, and, in the long-term, supported employment opportunities. Our guiding principles are those of harm reduction, youth development, and empowerment.
