Wanted: Volunteers for the Folsom St Fair
The Lesbian Health Research Center is looking for volunteers for the Folsom Street Fair on September 26th, 2004. 

What is the Folsom Street Fair?
The Folsom Street Fair is a street fair in San Francisco that promotes diversity within the leather/alternative lifestyle, highlighting entertainment, service and vendors. Proceeds from the production of the fairs are distributed to organizations which promote a sense of community, diversity, cooperation, health and human services.

Why is LHRC Looking for Volunteers?
We are a 2004 beneficiary so we will be receiving grant money from Folsom Street Events based on the number and quality of volunteers we provide for the Fair.

Why should I support LHRC?
LHRC fights to bridge the gap that LBTQ individuals face when interacting with the health care system.  The mission of the Lesbian Health Research Center is to enhance clinical practice and inform policy about the health care needs of and delivery of services to lesbians, bisexual women, and transgendered individuals through a program of research, postgraduate education and training, and public service.

What does volunteering involve?
Volunteers sign up for 4-5 hour shift the day of the fair.  LHRC is looking to fill shifts in the following areas: Set-up, security, treasury, gates, bike riders, floaters, Entertainment, First Aid, and Clean-up.
