Will you join Amanda and Kristen by including a gift to The Center in your will?
“When we decided to start building our family, we turned to The Center. There, we
connected with fellow LGBTQ+ parents, found affirming healthcare providers, and joined a welcoming community who reminded us that we were not alone. The Center was there for us during one of the most pivotal moments of our lives, and we are proud to give back by including it in our legacy plan. By leaving a gift to The Center in our will, part of our legacy will be that we helped ensure this historic institution will be there to meet the needs of all LGBTQ+ New Yorkers for years to come.” —Kristen & Amanda, Legacy Donors to The Center
