Home for Hope fundraiser at Dirty Franks

The first and only homeless shelter in Pennsylvania specifically for LGBTQ folks gets no public funding, and with a monthly operating cost of $9k, they need help. Lend a hand the easiest way there is — by having a drink with a bunch of friends. PECO will even match proceeds from the day, up to $5k.

Where: Dirty Franks at 347 S. 13th St. 19107

When: January 22, 2017 from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.

How much: Pay as you go
