SPECTRUM Raises Hundreds for LGBTQ Community

Arkansas Tech University students are working to strengthen their community through supporting area organizations.

SPECTRUM, a student organization devoted to the support and advocacy of the LGBTQ community at Arkansas Tech, raised several hundred dollars for Lucie’s Place at its sixth annual drag show fundraiser during Diversity and Inclusion Week at Arkansas Tech.

Lucie’s Place provides homeless LGBTQ young adults in Central Arkansas with safe living environments, job training and counseling services in order to ensure lifelong stability and success.

In all, $335 will be donated to Lucie’s Place to support their efforts.

The event was co-hosted by entertainers, Dinah House-Fire and Abs Hart.
