In 1974, Howard Brown was founded by four volunteers that made an impact and changed healthcare for the LGBTQ+ community.  With 11 health clinics, 3 resale shops and events across Chicago, we have many opportunities for you to support our programs and projects.

Corporate Volunteer Hour Match Program

Your employer may match your volunteer hours with charitable donations. Many companies will match an employee’s time volunteering, including volunteering at Howard Brown, with a financial gift – and the donations help us do important things! 

This employer match must be initiated by the volunteer. Check with your employer to see if they have a volunteer hour matching program. If so, reach out to volunteer@howardbrown.org to start doubling your impact!
