Cyndi Lauper Opens LGBT Shelter in Harlem

In case you didn't know, the number of homeless LGBT youth is on the rise. According to statistics 25% of homeless LGBT youth are more prone to violence and suicide. This is a problem that needs to visible to the world in my opinion and more needs to be done about it. Celebrity, Activist, and Trend Setter Cyndi Lauper is making a big difference in Harlem, NY by helping to open a Manhattan's first permanent homeless LGBT Shelter for our gay youth between the ages of 18-24. Lauper quotes "We need to make sure we're taking care of them. This is the next generation of the LGBT community." I give Cyndi TWO THUMBS UP. We need more people like her in the world. People who are not afraid to speak up and speak out about things that affect our community. We have to stick together and try our best to stay positive and strong and I feel that is what Cyndi is trying to do for us. After all "Girls just want to have fun" right???lol
