What started as a simple Friendsgiving gathering inspired by our support group members has grown into a cherished annual tradition of celebrating community, resilience, and chosen family.

Join us for our 3rd Annual Friendsgiving Gala on November 23, where we'll gather to honor community leaders, celebrate our accomplishments, and look toward the future of LGBTQ+ Center Lake County.

Enjoy a plated dinner, live entertainment, basket raffles, awards, and an evening surrounded by the people who remind us that family is often the one we choose.

Together, we'll celebrate where we've been, where we're going, and the community that makes it all possible. 💜🌈
