This month’s sponsor: Ben and Keith, known as The Two Gay Geeks, are a gay couple of 27 years whose podcast, TG Geeks Webcast, as well as their website, TGGeeks.com, have highlighted and showcased some very bright and budding talent, including new and independent filmmakers, artists, and writers and other independent organizations, conventions, and the like. Currently, The Two Gay Geeks are on a much needed hiatus but will return again soon. In the interim, they have asked Fanbase Press to highlight several worth-while organizations throughout the month.
Today, we will highlight: Mulligan’s Manor, a home to a special family of at-risk youth who have found refuge from the turmoil of their lives. Believing that every youth deserves a safe and supportive place to grow, Mulligan’s Manor provides a loving family-oriented group home for at-risk LGBTQIA+ youth, along with tools and programs designed to help them build life skills for a fulfilling and happy future.
