This holiday season, let's come together to support our community! On Thursday, November 21, the Greater Houston LGBTQ+ Chamber Foundation is hosting its annual Holiday Food & Supply Drive to benefit Tony's Place—a vital resource for LGBTQ+ homeless youth and one of our nonprofit members. 

Now in its fifth year, the Holiday Food & Supply Drive began in response to the pandemic, and we’re ready to make an even bigger impact this year. Can we count on your help?

TWO LOCATIONS THIS YEAR

AM

Join us for the 3rd Thursday Breakfast from 8:00 - 9:30 am at Cadillac Bar, 1802 Shepherd, and drop off food and supplies to support Tony's Place.

PM

The afternoon Drive will be hosted from 4:00 - 7:00 pm again this year by Chamber Member, Eureka Heights Brewing Co., located at 941 West 18th Street.  Stick around for Drag Bingo which starts at 7 pm. 

MAKE A LASTING IMPACT

Last year, the Chamber Holiday Food & Supply Drive raised so many donations for Tony’s Place that they had to rework their budget! Let’s break that record again this year and show our support for unhoused LGBTQ+ youth.

Check out the video from Carrie Rai, Executive Director of Tony’s Place, to learn more about the impact of last year’s Drive.

This year we again ask for your help to support LGBTQ+ youth in need. Donations will also help fill the supplies and food needs at Tony’s Place, a resource center and community space focusing on LGBTQ+ youth who are in need of help with safe housing, queer health services, educational support, and more.

ABOUT TONY'S PLACE

Tony's Place Logo cropped

Tony’s Place is a resource center and community space focusing on LGBTQ+ youth who are in need of help with safe housing, queer health services, educational support, and more. Tony’s Place opened in 2016 in memory of Robert Anthony “Tony” Carroll, a pillar of the Houston community and a tireless advocate for numerous LGBTQ+ causes. Tony and his husband Bruce were strong advocates for a drop-in center for young LGBTQ+ people. The organization focuses on providing five core services: Basic Needs; Case Management; Support Services; Community Engagement; and Advocacy.
