We Are "LGBTQIA not DESPERATE"!
We are excited to announce that fundraising efforts have begun in preparations of the, 5th Annual Galaxy Ball, but with only 17 days left, we're running out of time and could use your help!
This annual series supports over 350+ disfranchised LGBTQIA People of Color, providing a safe space, and opportunity to showcase their creative expressions while competing for over $3,000 in cash prizes and trophies!
The Annual Galaxy Ball series celebrates the Ballroom Community, a Black and Brown LGBTQ underground sub-culture that for decades has been popularized by some of your favorite celebrities (example(s): Madonna, Queen Beyonce', and Tamar Braxton) . Over the course of the past three years the annual Galaxy Ball series has invested more than $20,000.00 into our local tri-state LGBTQ community.
Purchase your limited edition " LGBTQIA not DESPERATE" True T-Shirt today and stand in solidarity with the millions of queer folks around the world as we say it loud "We're here to Stay!".

ALL FUNDS RAISED WILL GO TOWARDS THE SUSTAINABILITY OF THE 5TH ANNUAL GALAXY BALL CURRENTLY SCHEDULED FOR SPRING 2018.
ABOUT TRUE T ENTERTAINMENT
True T Entertainment serves as a community platform for LGBTQ Resource Sharing, Queer Arts, and Entertainment.
True T Entertainment was founded in 2010 by 2 aspiring LGBTQ futurists who came together in efforts of filling a void in the local Pittsburgh, POC LGBTQIA community..
As young black gay men, Co-Executive Directors, John Easter III and Duane Binion realized the lack of necessary connections to resources, and safe spaces that offered education and entertainment. We have found too often that in this lifestyle our people feel disconnected from society and often give up hope in succeeding in life due to the lack of mentorship, comfortable spaces in which they can be 100% themselves without fear of being bashed or ridiculed, and everyday resources such as HIV/STD prevention and awareness, employment assistances, healthy productive activities to keep fit, and engagement in positive doings. Through our endeavors we have managed to host various events, as well as partner with many local non-profit organizations (such as Pittsburgh Aids Task Force, Garden of Peace Project, Project Silk, Roots Pride, Kelly Strayhorn Theater, and more) .
