Chris Lugo, executive director of Out Georgia Business Alliance
Out Georgia Business Alliance launched a new capital campaign this month to give back to LGBTQ people in need. The announcement came with news of a new partnership, the search for an advisory committee, and a six-figure goal.
Once funded, the Out Georgia Impact Fund will offer grants that help LGBTQ causes in “meaningful, measurable and lasting” ways, said Chris Lugo, executive director of Out Georgia.
You may know the local business networking group for its happy hour fetes, business summit, its most influential LGBTQ Georgians list and an annual awards gala. But doing good in the gayborhood is right in line with the group’s philosophy as well, Lugo said.
