In a world that can barely sustain us, we sustain each other.

And when our people are under attack, The Center shows up.

Across the country—and right here in New York—services that once supported our community’s health, safety, and success are being slashed, politicized, or erased altogether. Funding for programs that once offered lifelines is vanishing. And the institutions meant to protect us? They’re ignoring us… or worse.

But we are still here. And we are not going anywhere.

Donate on Giving Tuesday

On Giving Tuesday, please make a gift (of any size!) to support The Center. Every day, we meet LGBTQ+ New Yorkers turned away or failed by systems that promised to care. When someone walks through the doors of The Center seeking mental health support, substance use recovery, or immigration guidance, we don’t just respond to their immediate need—we look at the whole person. 

We offer wraparound services: therapy, health insurance enrollment, peer social groups, rapid HIV testing, leadership opportunities, food and housing referrals, public transit support, ESL classes, legal clinics, and so much more.

This is not charity. This is humanity.
This is what care looks like.
This is ensuring no one is left behind.
And we need your support to keep doing it.

Your gift today ensures that LGBTQ+ people get the compassionate, comprehensive care they deserve. Thank you for being the kind of person that shows up when it matters. Help us meet this moment with strength and deep, unwavering devotion.

We all deserve dignity, protection, and happiness.
Your donation on Giving Tuesday makes it possible.

In relentless solidarity,

Eugene Lovendusky
Individual and Planned Giving Manager
