After an Indiana pizzeria closed shop and raised more than $840,000 when its owners faced backlash for saying they would not serve a gay wedding, Kansas-based Equality House decided to set up its own fundraiser to help raise money for the LGBT community. The program's "Virtual Pizza" fundraiser on CrowdRise is collecting money for homeless LGBT youth who have been displaced from their homes because of bigotry.

One hundred hotel rooms will be made available for one year to homeless LGBT people if Equality House reaches their goal of $100,000. The group has raised more than $20,000 so far.

It's just awesome to see positive things coming out of all this mess. Big kudos to Equality House!  :eusa_clap:
