LGBT Social Networking Organization We were established in January of 2009 with five members.
During our formation process we became acquainted with each other to learn the roles for each position in the group. Our mission was not established at the present time due to our formation process. Throughout the year of 2009 we were able to define our mission and vision of the group based upon the activities that we sponsored for the SGLBTQ community.

Omidara Eugenia Edwards Adeleke aka Gena aka Quick had a vision. Her vision was to join forces with many to open the 1st LGBTQ Homeless shelter. Gena was once homeless due to her sexual orientation and felt left out in the world to nowhere to go to. So she wanted this shelter for other LGBTQ that may have faced what she went thru.She linked up with many, learned how to write grants, and then began to meet with others to start the formation of her vision. Well Gena aka Quick got sick and God called her home in 2023. Her strive and determination was so deep that others continued Gena's vision. Marek Phillip Parker has worked with Gena on those visions prior to her passing, but obstacles arised and things were put on hold temporary. Marek kept her dream (vision) going and started forming committee meetings to make progress. Recently Marek reached out to BILA and informed us that the name of this homeless shelter will be named after Gena calling it the Eugenia Homeless Shelter. I may have not said the name right but Eugenia is in there. Thanks to Genas determination, strive, and the people she shared her vision with for naming the New LGBTQ shelter after our Black Intelligent Ladies Alliance Bruhther Quick aka Eugenia. May her soul be at rest and peace. Im proud of you bruh.
If anyone wants to donate and support Marek Phillip Parkers in the process of this LGBTQ Homelss Shelter, please reach out to him. We will greatly appreciate your donations and support.
Love

I went to a LGBTQIA Task Force Conference, and when I tell you it was so information I was blinded to. Welp, I am part of this Task Force so I will be applying a lot of things. Soon to come, we must stick together on this mission.
Merry Christmas everyone
