Helping Others Thrive Together is a 501(c)3 Public Charity that shines a positive light on the Tucson Women’s Community by providing goods, services, and charitable donations to other non-profits. Our mission is two-fold:

 

1. To funnel resources to recognized charities that care for people, animals, and places in need

2.   To change the negative perceptions of the LGBTQ Community to positive ones

 

The women of our gay community have been gathering once a month for a breakfast meeting  to share their stories and gain strength.  Traditionally, lesbians have been invisible both in our history and culture.  The truth is, we have always been here but our voices haven't been heard.  When the economy started tanking in 2009, the women at our breakfast started collecting money for needy organizations and individuals.  After a few years, we realized it was time for us to become a non-profit organization.  We were no longer incubating an idea by doing good works; we became a neophyte, filed the paper work, and received our Federal recognition October, 2011!
