The Lesbians Who Tech organization focuses on helping women in the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) community connect with each other both individually, as like-minded lovers of all things tech, as well as professionally as a growing network of mentors and business investors.

Those interactions also help the organization better meet the needs of their members, as well as provide crowdsourced information that can help make their NYC Summit a success. In that regard, a new Lesbians Who Tech (and friends) Philadelphia August Happy Hour will take place August 27, 2015, from 5pm until 7pm, to gear up for and encourage participation in the upcoming Summit.

You Are Not Cursed, a book authored by Gregory King, shares the intimate details of the emotional and spiritual challenges he faced as a young man in the Christian faith. Gregory firmly believes that there are many misperceptions and stereotypes that reinforce an exclusionary Christian belief system that rejects those who are different and regards them as CURSED. He specifically challenges many "so-called" Christians to re-evaluate how they choose to treat those with a different sexual orientation within the church congregation. Gregory believes that these flawed beliefs are divisive and create an environment of judgment, condemnation, and self-destruction which completely contradicts the teachings of Jesus.
