For the past decade, Love On A Mission has been dedicated to creating a safe, affirming space for LGBTQIA+ youth in our community. As we enter our 11th year of service, we celebrate the impact we've made together and look ahead to a new chapter of growth. None of this would have been possible without the generosity and support of people like you.

We warmly invite you to celebrate with us at the Love On A Mission Annual Gala, themed "From Within We Rise". Saturday, August 22, 2026 at the Mid-Ohio Conference Center in Mansfield, Ohio. This is a formal event with doors opening at 5:30pm with the program beginning at 6:00pm, and silent auction concluding at 8pm.
