Happy Birthday, Marsha P. Johnson! 🎉 Marsha P. Johnson was one of the most significant LGBTQ+ liberation activists. She fought fiercely for the rights of LGBTQ+ New Yorkers, influencing LGBTQ+ movements around the world. From the Stonewall riots to HIV/AIDS activism, Marsha dedicated her life to her community. She is remembered for her smile, her heart, and her courage in spite of the danger she experienced. As the LGBTQ+ community, especially transgender and gender nonconforming people, face increasing attacks on our rights, we continue to be inspired by her legacy. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ #MarshaPJohnson #History #LGBTQHistory #NYC #Stonewall

“When we decided to start building our family, we turned to The Center. There, we connected with fellow LGBTQ+ parents, found affirming healthcare providers, and joined a welcoming community who reminded us that we were not alone. The Center was there for us during one of the most pivotal moments of our lives, and we are proud to give back by including it in our legacy plan. By leaving a gift to The Center in our will, part of our legacy will be that we helped ensure this historic institution will be there to meet the needs of all LGBTQ+ New Yorkers for years to come.” —Amanda and Kristen, Legacy Donors to The Center Will you join Amanda, Kristen, by including a gift to The Center in your will?
