Dear Friends - Unfortunately, secondary to unexpected, scheduled events, we've found it necessary to cancel our Virtual Pride Party. We're already planning our next event to continue to support our community and our partner The LGBT Asylum Project...please stay tuned and remember, Black Lives Matter!

"The Academy of Friends is proud to announce that through our fundraising efforts of 2019/20 we were able to provide The LGBT Asylum Project $20,000! During these trying times when many people are significantly physically, emotionally, and financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, the additional stress of one's asylum and HIV status can be overwhelming. That is why we are thrilled to support those who need it now more than ever! The LGBT Asylum Project and The Academy of Friends would like to thank each and every person who supported us, as well as, our generous sponsors."
