Gay Community Endowment Fund - Akron, Ohio

Every moment gives us the chance to love, to learn, to dream and to become more than we ever imagined. Help us build a bright future for Akron's LGBT community.

As the GCEF philanthropic fund continues to grow, the income earned and granted to area non-profit organizations will grow along with it!
