Join our Stronger Together Giving Circle!

The Equality Community Center (ECC) is Maine’s first and only LGBTQ+ and social justice-focused community center — a place where individuals and organizations come together to build a stronger, more inclusive Maine.

Your monthly gift to our Stronger Together Giving Circle helps us sustain this vital work and plan boldly for the future.

• We’ll be ready to open Maine’s first affordable senior housing living community with services for LGBTQ+ older adults in 2026.

• We’ll expand innovative programming for LGBTQ+ youth and elders, trans and non-binary folks, BIPOC Mainers, immigrants, refugees, and asylum seekers.

• And we’ll provide quality space and services for over sixteen LGBTQ+ and allied organizations and community programs working to advance justice and equity across Maine.

Stronger Together donors are the foundation of our work. By making a monthly pledge, you help us build a reliable and resilient source of revenue to grow our programs and meet the evolving needs of our community. Your gift — in any amount — makes a real and lasting difference.

As a thank you for your support, all Stronger Together donors will be invited to a holiday appreciation celebration this December.
