We speak with the Chief Development Officer Kennedy Loftin about the upcoming Montrose Center gala Housing Our Future. Housing Our Future Gala to provide help, hope, and a second chance to LGBTQ youth in Houston who are experiencing homelessness. The rental assistance program sets up each youth in their own apartment.
