By joining this fabulous virtual gala event you help support Horizons the world’s first community foundation by & for LGBTQ people that has made grants supporting our entire LGBTQ community. Their support is intentionally broad because the needs of our community are so many & run so deep. At the same time their venture philanthropy approach looks favorably toward innovative, grassroots solutions for our LGBTQ community's emerging needs, especially those of the most under-resourced segments of our community.
