“Many people in my life have benefited from the services provided by the Los Angeles LGBT Center and, after seeing the work they do firsthand with LGBT youth and seniors, I knew this would be an organization I’d be supporting for years to come,” Grande said. “In ‘Rainbowthon,’ expect to smile, laugh and have a good time while also highlighting the incredible work the center has done for the community during these crazy times.”
The Los Angeles LGBT Center remains committed as a first responder for the LGBT community. The world’s largest provider of programs and services to LGBT people, the center continues to serve those in need, particularly youth experiencing homelessness and seniors, with health care, mental health services, case management and other assistance. Additionally, the Center is one of the nation’s few Federally Qualified Health Centers with providers who specialize in primary care for LGBT people and people living with HIV.
