| We are very excited to announce that this Sunday, April 26, The Spahr Center is partnering with CenterLink and GLAAD to present “Together in Pride: You Are Not Alone,” a star studded livestream event to bring the LGBTQ community together and honor our frontline healthcare workers during COVID-19. |

| The livestream will share stories of LGBTQ front-line doctors and essential workers. Hosted by Lilly Singh and Billy Eichner. Featuring performances by Ke$ha and Melissa Etheridge. Messages of pride and support will be sent to LGBTQ youth from special guests including Pete & Chasten Buttigieg, Billy Porter, Rosie O’Donnell, Matt Bomer, Adam Lambert, Bebe Rexha, Dan Levy, Mj Rodriguez, Wilson Cruz, Kathy Griffin, Gigi Gorgeous, Nats Getty, Michelle Visage, Javier Muñoz, Sean Hayes, Sharon Stone, and Tatiana Maslany. More names will be announced soon! LGBTQ community centers, including The Spahr Center, serve as safe spaces for nearly 40,000 LGBTQ people each week and 2 million people each year. During the pandemic, LGBTQ community centers are still providing critical services such as medical care, mental health counseling, virtual support groups, filling prescriptions, providing hot meals and check-in phone calls for older adults, serving as shelters for homeless youth, distributing nonperishable food items and hygiene products, case management, HIV testing, and hosting virtual engagement activities to decrease social isolation. Given the current financial crisis and loss of revenue, LGBT community centers could be forced to shrink our services, meaning tens of thousands of LGBTQ people could go without care. We hope you will tune in to support The Spahr Center and our partner LGBTQ+ community centers. Stay safe and stay healthy. Sincerely,Dana Van Gorder |
