HLM COVID-19 Ballroom Relief Fund

During these unprecedented times, HLM is shifting our priorities this year to direct our funding toward direct aid for our community. Our plan is to have House and Ballroom Community members submit a form to request aid. **$50 per person** We are ONLY prioritizing individuals who are members of Ballroom Community at large (Kiki and Mainstream), AND who are affiliated with a House or have been in the past.  If you are in need of aid during this time please complete this form here.

These are very uncertain times and we understand that everyone may not have the capacity to support. We would like to thank NorthStar Fund for supporting this initiative and kick starting our effort with $10k! To continue our efforts beyond this amount, we are leaning on our community partners and supporters to contribute to our fund to reach more members of our community. Please unite with us and you can find the donation and fundraising information here.
