Become a Member of the Center on High

Dear Friend,

I am writing to you today to ask that you become a member of the Center on High.

For almost thirty years, thousands of LGBT people have been touched and their lives have been changed by the work of Stonewall Columbus. Now the organization has grown to facilitate a vibrant community center that offers personal enrichment classes, a senior companion program, a health and wellness clinic, education and faith forums, high school outreach, diversity and arts initiatives, financial workshops and housing seminars. Stonewall continues to be the driving force on LGBT issues and our Center is the “first stop” for many in the LGBT and allied community. Stonewall Columbus sets the pace for increasing the visibility and acceptance of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community, and you can help.
