During their lifetimes, Bruce K. Lane and Steven E. Gillette were committed to supporting organizations that fostered education, dignity, respect, understanding and a compassionate continuum of care for people and pets alike, especially members of the LGBTQIA+ community, individuals living with HIV and their four-legged companions. To sustain their joint charitable legacy, Bruce and Steven established this fund upon their passing to provide perpetual annual support to nine of their most cherished organizations.
