Lighthouse Foundation 5-Year Anniversary Fundraiser

Join us in celebrating Lighthouse Foundation's remarkable journey over the past five years! Since our founding in 2019, we have been dedicated to fostering a strong and supportive community for Black LGBTQ+ individuals in Chicago. To mark this milestone, we invite you to an unforgettable fundraiser at Meeting House Tavern, an LGBTQ+ bar nestled in the heart of Andersonville, one of Chicago's most vibrant gayborhoods.

Our 5-Year Anniversary Fundraiser will be filled with entertainment, reflection, and community spirit. Here's what you can look forward to:

• Drag Bingo ($25 a card): Kick off the celebration with a lively and engaging game of drag bingo. Test your luck and enjoy the fabulous antics of our charismatic hosts.
  
• Drag Performances: Be dazzled by performances from local drag artists, including the sensational Kenya J. Sanchez and the show-stoppin’ Olaysia. Their performances promise to be electrifying and unforgettable.
  
• Keynote Speeches: Hear from key stakeholders as they share inspiring stories, reflect on our journey, and outline our vision for the future.
  

Over the past five years, Lighthouse Foundation has made a significant impact, including launching the first Black Queer Equity Index in the U.S. and hosting over 100 community events that brought together more than 4,700 people. This fundraiser is more than just a celebration—it's an opportunity to support a Black LGBTQ+-led and founded organization dedicated to creating lasting systemic change for Black LGBTQ+ Chicagoans. Your attendance and contributions will help us continue our vital work and expand our reach in the community.

Come celebrate with us and be a part of this historic moment. We look forward to seeing you there!
