What We Do
What We Do
Since April 2020, we’ve given over $53,000 to local LGBTQ in need!
We established Twirl Assistance Program (TAP) in April 2020 to provide assistance to LGBTQ+ community members and families who are facing financial hardship.
We currently have three areas of focus:
- Direct Assistance (to individual applicants due to COVID-19)
- Partner Referrals (from therapists and local partner agencies)
- Mental Health & Wellness (to include individual therapy sessions)
We also provide year-round opportunities for the LGBTQ+ community and their Allies to come together in a safe, inclusive environment while building awareness, fundraising, and giving back to our local communities.
