One of these local charities will benefit from EPIP's #GivingTuesday event, but we NEED YOUR HELP! We're ask all EPIP members, friends, partners, colleagues, and allies (all of you) to VOTE for your favorite charity by texting one of these codes to 22333 (See live results here!):

• 218377 for The Ali Forney Center, which protects LGBTQ youth from the harm of homelessness
• 218378 for City Harvest, which collects excess food from restaurants & grocers and delivers it to community food programs
• 218379 for Community Voices Heard, which builds power to secure social, economic and racial justice for all by organizing principally women of color and low-income families

(For example: in the "to" box, type "22333", then in the body of the message, type 218377 if your choice is The Ali Forney Center.) ON December 2, 2014, EPIP and EPIP-NY will be hosting our Party to Share Prosperity - A #GivingTuesday Event, at No. 8 in New York City. Proceeds from our event will be split among EPIP and the charity with the most votes. Even if you can't join us in person on 12/2, you can participate by voting and helping us to make a choice.
