The Liberty Hill Foundation partners with innovative and effective Los Angeles grassroots organizations to combat poverty and injustice, and help transform the "City of Angels" into a place that promises safety, equality and opportunity for everyone who lives here. .Since 1976, Liberty Hill Foundation has given away more than $30 million to grassroots community organizations in Los Angeles County. The Los Angeles Times has called Liberty Hill "the most effective organization of its type in the country."



After the ceremony, I spent the rest of the evening in the Plaza bar with some fabulous gay boys who all work in either politics, law or non profit. Other than talking social change, the biggest topic was how fast we'd all be seeing SEX & THE CITY THE MOVIE.
