NEW FUND ESTABLISHED
|
Doug Elliott,
a long-time supporter of ONE National Gay & Lesbian Archives died on
February 14, 2008. Before Doug died, he
worked with an estate planning professional to setup "The Doug Elliott Research
and Scholarship Fund for Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Trans-gender Studies" after
his death. The purpose of the Fund is to
improve understanding and societal integration of all persons of various sexual
orientations.
ONE Archives is pleased to announce that The Doug Elliott Research and Scholarship Fund has been
established and the ONE Board is working to determine the use of these funds
using Doug Elliott's guidelines.
One of the provisions of the Fund is that additional
contributions can be made in memory of Doug.
Money that you give to ONE Archives and designate as a gift to the Doug Elliott fund will be added to the Fund and
continue Doug's vision. Please send your
checks to ONE Archives, 909 W.
Adams Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90007. For further information about the Fund,
please contact Carol Grosvenor,
Treasurer, at CarolG@ONEarchives.org

OUT
and ABOUT TOURS
|
Out & About Tours has made it
part of its mission to donate a portion of its ticket price to a local
or national LGBT charity of its choosing each month and is thrilled to
announce that our first charitable donations will support ONE National Gay & Lesbian Archives. "Much of the research that was
conducted to bring the tour to life, came directly off the shelves of
ONE's Archives in Downtown Los Angeles. Without their help in
preserving and archiving LGBT history, none of this would have been
possible.We want to show our thanks to everyone who has supported ONE by offering
a special discount to anyone who would like to ride with us." says Jim Anzide
Out & About Tours is excited to unveil the first and only LGBT bus
tour in the Hollywood area that reveals, in an entertaining way, the
culturally rich, vital and often hidden LGBT history in the city of Los
Angeles and its relevance to our present-day gay experience. With an
open door to adults from the LGBT community and the friends who support
us, Out & About Tours will enlighten, educate and amuse everyone
who dares set foot on our wild ride.
