"The
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center provides a
home for the birth, nurture, and celebration of LGBT organizations,
institutions, and culture. They care for individuals and groups in
need, educate the public and the LGBT community, and empower
individuals and groups to achieve their fullest potential. Established
in 1983, the Center has grown to become the largest LGBT multi-service
organization on the East Coast and second largest LGBT community center
in the world. They provide groundbreaking social service, public
policy, educational, and cultural/recreational programs and serve as an
incubator for grassroots groups that meet in the Center's facilities," state press notes."God's
Love We Deliver's mission is to improve the health and well-being of
men, women and children living with HIV/AIDS and other serious
illnesses by alleviating hunger and malnutrition. GLWD prepares and
delivers nutritious, high-quality meals to people who, because of their
illness, are unable to provide or prepare meals for themselves. GLWD
also provides illness-specific nutrition education and counseling to
clients, families, care providers and other service organizations. GLWD
provides volunteer opportunities in their kitchen, with delivering
meals, and in their offices for all people who wish to assist people
living with serious illnesses. Their services are provided free of
charge and they act out of a sense of responsibility to help those in
need. They act out of a sense of urgency because hunger cannot wait.
GLWD is committed to grow and change in response to their clients'
changing needs."
