Join Us and Help Launch Our LGBT Justice Fund!

16 July 2016 , Posted in: Press Release

Finding Legal Services for the LGBT Community Is Getting a Little Easier! 

Please join Congressman and Gay Rights Advocate Barney

Frank and the Maine Justice Foundation (MJF) to launch MJF’s

New LGBT Justice Fund, which will provide funding for

nonprofit organizations that address the civil legal aid needs

of low-income and vulnerable LGBT people.

WHEN: December 7, 2016, 5:30 – 8 pm

WHERE: Holiday Inn by The Bay, Portland, ME

WHAT: Cash bar and reception with heavy hors d’oeuvres

WHY: The movement for full equality for LGBT people has seen incredible

progress in a short time. But there are still many threats to the laws that

protect LGBT people. Being both poor and LGBT poses specific challenges

and amplifies the need for legal services for LGBT people to battle

discrimination, find housing, secure benefits, and protect their safety. This

fund will support the needs of this vulnerable population for decades to

come.

COSTS: Tickets: $30 per person

Ticket sales are limited to 300. Purchase your ticket(s) today!
