Title
Lambda Community Center - Serving the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex community in Sacramento
Description
The Lambda Community Fund is Sacramento's oldest non-profit, tax-deductible charity specifically serving the needs of the LGBTI community. Just nine years after the infamous Stonewall Riots, the Lambda Community Fund was originally incorporated in 1978 as a special assistance program.
Then on July 13, 1984, Jerry Falwell appeared on television and denied that he had ever referred to Metropolitan Community Church as vile, satanic and its members "brute beasts" on his Old Time Gospel Hour. He offered $5,000 to anyone who could prove that he had. Rev Jerry Sloan of MCC in Sacramento, California, called Falwell's toll-free number and purchased a copy of the tape as proof, and demanded payment of the $5,000. When Falwell refused, Sloan sued and won. With $5,000 in hand the Lambda Community Fund was reorganized in 1984 under its current name by Rev. Jerry Sloan and the late Timothy Warford with the help and guarantees of Terry Sidie, Marghe Covino and the Late C.G.N.I.E. Emperor, Randy Hartman, to mention a few, to serve the broader cross-section of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Intersex (LGBTI) community.
The Lambda Community Fund is now a multi-purpose human service agency. Programs of the Lambda Community Fund serve to assist the LGBTI person in leading self-sufficient, healthy, well-adjusted lives and to provide advocacy for issues of importance or special interest to our community. Thank you Mr. Falwell, one of our largest and least willing contributors! We need to erect a gold plaque in the Falwell Memorial Bathroom to one of our founding members!
