Special Events
Support the LGBTI Centre of Touraine: a refuge in danger
The LGBTI Centre of Touraine, an essential pillar for the LGBTI+ community, is in danger. Its vital actions – helping asylum seekers, supporting LGBTI+ people, supporting schools – and its employees depend entirely on donations and subsidies, which are dwindling dangerously. This place is much more than a centre: it is a refuge for those who need it most.
To continue to exist and act, the Centre needs you. Every donation, even a modest one, is a precious help. Together, let’s preserve this space of listening, welcome and solidarity. Thank you for your support.
You can pay your donation or membership online or by check by filling out the membership form opposite and sending the payment to the "Centre LGBTI de Touraine" at the following address:
