40 years. Wow. I feel old but at the same time more energized than ever. As I cross this milestone, with the good fortune for everything I need for a healthy happy life, I am asking my friends in lieu of gifts or celebration to help me raise $20000 by the end of my 41st year to support two important causes near to my heart- Ali Forney and The Center NYC. Both doing incredible and important work for the LGBTQ+ community in need. If I have ever made you smile, help me help others smile this year.
