LAMBDA LEGAL 

IN THE DESERT 

Sunday, March 17, 2024

11:00 am — 1:00 pm
Home of Tom Ray, Palm Springs, CA


Join us for this special event!

This year, Lambda Legal begins our second half-century of representing LGBTQ+ people and everyone living with HIV. And we’re doing so at a critical time. Our mission is Unstoppable — we were made for times like these!


We never charge our clients for legal representation or advocacy, nor do we receive any government funding. With your support, we can keep defending our rights anywhere they are threatened â€” and write the next chapter of Lambda Legal history together.


For more information about the event and sponsorship opportunities, please contact Mark Labadorf at mlabadorf@lambdalegal.org
