**Our group -- in collaboration with our sister group DCATS -- is pleased to announce that a longtime friend and member of our respective groups, Bree Fram, will be having a birthday party combined with a fundraiser at Freddie's Beach Bar this Sunday.** Bree has been a supportive member of our groups and a prominent advocate of our community. As many of you may know, she is running for office in Virginia in an upcoming election. It is a tough decision to run for a major office, putting yourself out there in the public domain, particularly a high-profile position. We wish her the best in her endeavors acknowledging her commitment and her courage. *This group is chartered as a social enterprise for the benefit of the transgender female community at large.
