In early December, TCP received notification that
we received a grant from the Unitarian Universalist Funding
Program (UUFP). Our award was from the "Fund for a Just Society"
which "makes grants to nonprofit organizations addressing issues
of social and economic justice. Grants are given to projects
that use community organizing to bring about systemic change."
This is especially great news because it is unusual for a non-profit
to receive grant funding before obtaining a permanent space
and the receipt of this grant will help us secure other grants.
TCP has started a NEW social and support group for lesbian,
gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer adoptive, foster & birth
parents, and parents in planning. The group meeting the first
Thursday of the month from 7:00 - 8:15 p.m. at the Unitarian Universalist
Church (directions). Child care
provided. Click here for more information.
There are a lot of ways you can get involved with
The Center Project. You can help us staff our booth at a community
event. It's really easy and there will be an "old-timer" TCP
person with you. If you don't want to volunteer publicly there
is a lot of behind the scenes work that goes on. You can help
make our mid-Missouri famous homemade dog and cat treats. We
also need help with folding and cutting our brochures. Do you
have experience writing grants? If so, we can use your help.
Check out our volunteer web page
to see all our volunteer opportunities.
The Center Project is committed to creating a community center for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, and ally (LGBTQQA) residents of mid-Missouri. Our current home is located in the Unitarian Universalist Church at 2615 Shepard Blvd., Columbia, MO. We plan to have a permanent home in downtown Columbia, MO in 2008.
