Casa BruMar Foundation’s charitable purposes are to provide a physical meeting space and community social services to at-risk and disadvantaged individuals experiencing homelessness, abandonment, and cruelty, especially members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (“LGBTQ+”) community.
Casa BruMar Foundation’s educational purposes include the encouragement and support of members of the LGBTQ+ community in their academic endeavors as they heal and rebuild after traumatic life-changing experiences.
