We Give Back Wednesdays: Q Center

On each Wednesday in June, 10% of our sales will go to the Q Center, the wonderful LGBTQ community center just around the corner from our North Portland location. The Q Center is an absolute gem of an organization; here’s their description of what they do:

Q Center serves as Portland’s LGBTQ2SIA+ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Two Spirit, Intersex, Asexual) dedicated community center. Our mission is to provide safe spaces, community building and empowerment for the positive transformation of LGBTQ2SIA+ communities and allies in the Pacific Northwest.

Q Center serves as a hub for LGBTQ2SIA+ resilience and empowerment, with 20,000 visits annually for resources such as: a daily drop-in space, over 40 peer support groups, monthly rotating art exhibits, LGBTQ2SIA+ markets, programs for elders, leader development programming, and a LGBTQ2SIA+ specific information and referral system.

Shop with us on any Wednesday in June, and 10% of your purchase will go to the Q Center!

Bonus: give the Q Center some social media love by following them on Facebook and Twitter! Also check out some video interviews with the people who make the Q Center tick on YouTube.
