Welcome to the first monthly Charity Poker Tournament presented by Red Light Café! This is a Free-Entry ($20+ Suggested Donation) No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament where 100% of donations go to the month's charity organization (each month will benefit a different organization). For the inaugural tournament on the 23rd of September 2019, we'll be raising money for Lost-n-Found Youth.
Lost-n-Found Youth (LNFY) is an Atlanta-based grassroots nonprofit working to end the cycle of homelessness among lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender youth age 18-25. LNFY operates a 24/7 hotline at 678-856-7825, a homeless youth drop-in center, a thrift & consignment shop, and a 6-bed housing facility in Atlanta.
