Rochester LGBTQ+ Together is a volunteer-run grassroots community organization. We rely entirely upon the generosity of volunteers, who donate their time, energy, skills, and knowledge to run all of our programs and events, coordinate special projects, run our mutual aid efforts, maintain our website, manage fundraising, and more! Our organization is for community and by community!
