July 28, 2010 - Newfoundland Gays And Lesbians for Equality, Inc.

Newfoundland Gays And Lesbians for Equality, Inc. was a legal corporate entity from Nov 20, 1997 - June 13, 2006. It's mission was to be "a community-based, not-for-profit volunteer organization dedicated to providing support and education to and for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered persons, and the public in general, in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada." It had live web presence as an organization until 2004. This was the only LGBTQ community-based advocacy and support group that was run and managed by and for the LGBTQ community. Since its devolution, there has been a severe gap in our province. An archive of their original website as it existed on Dec 19, 1999 can be seen here .

I am currently looking for people who would be interested in forming a corporate partnership with me to either resurrect Ngale, or create a similar non-profit company.
