Houston LGBT Positive Impact Day

On Sunday night, the opposition to HERO will be meeting in rally full of hate and anger. Our community will be meeting, too, but with a very different goal. At 2 p.m. on Sunday, we’ll be meeting at Montrose Grace Place (at 2515 Waugh, housed in Grace Lutheran Church). Grace Place provides services for LGBT homeless youth. Please bring gently worn or new winter clothing items, toiletries, sleeping bags and other winter necessities, which we will donate to Grace Place. While the HERO opposition is creating noise about taking rights away, we’ll be creating a positive effect on the lives of people in Houston. But we’re not only going to be creating a better present for people in our community Sunday – we’ll be working for a positive future, too. Wear comfortable shoes, because after you drop off your donation, you can pick up a walk list to go speak to voters in the surrounding neighborhoods to make sure they get out to vote for candidates who share our values. We’ll be pushing the endorsement card of the Houston GLBT Political Caucus PAC. The HERO movement has always been about creating a better future for all Houstonians. We’ll be doing that Sunday, and the contrast between our efforts and the negativity of the opposition will send a strong message. Please join us. UPDATE: We have some specific requests from Grace Place. Please bring: Winter clothes, Socks, Sleeping Bags, Toiletries, Hand-warmers, Mini-flashlights, blankets, Also, we will be collecting for Bering Omega Hospice. We are asking people to bring: Towels, wash clothes, robes, handi-wipes
