Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday! 💛🏳️‍🌈

As Board Chair of The Frederick Center, I witness every day how deeply this community supports one another. Every person we serve and every program we offer is made possible because of you: the volunteers, donors, advocates, and neighbors who believe that LGBTQIA+ people deserve to feel safe, supported, and at home.

Giving Tuesday is a day when people across the world come together to uplift the nonprofits that mean the most to them. If The Frederick Center has impacted you, your family, or your community, I’m asking you to join Juno & me in supporting them.

✨ Ways to support on Giving Tuesday:

• Share The Frederick Center’s stories and help widen our reach�
• Invite a friend or two to follow along�
• Make a gift - whether it’s $5 or $500 - to ensure our services remain free�
• Spread the word so we can keep building the Frederick we all deserve

Whether you can give a little or a lot, your support helps us provide life-changing LGBTQIA+ programming at no cost to those who rely on us.

Together, we create the community we want to see.�

Thank you for supporting The Frederick Center this Giving Tuesday! 💜

Tuesday’s fashionably late ribbon-cutting at The Frederick Center was a moment I won’t forget. As Board Chair, I’ve watched our team of staff and volunteers pour their hearts, sweat, tears, and countless hours into creating a true home for our LGBTQIA+ community. Seeing everyone feeling so at HOME was everything. 🏳️‍🌈💕

I couldn’t be prouder of our staff, volunteers, and Board. I am so grateful for Kris’s leadership as executive director. The Frederick Center is growing, grounded, and ready for what’s next. 🧡

Our mission has always been simple: everyone belongs. And now, with this new Center open, we are living that mission with even greater impact.

Thank YOU to EVERY volunteer, donor, staff member, partner, and community member who helped make this possible. You’re part of every story of courage, connection, and celebration that walks through our doors.

Here’s to growth, joy, and another year of showing Maryland what belonging looks like. 🌈✨
