Our Mission
Power2Endure.org (P2E) is a Georgia LGBTQ (and Str8 Friendly) 501c3 Non-Profit HIV/AIDS Health and Human Services Organization emphasizing Personal Advocacy and Client Services. Our services are inclusive of all individuals and are focused on those facing financial challenges due to health-related issues.
We are not a competitor to other nonprofits, but rather complement their efforts to help individuals who earn too much to qualify for federal assistance but require support. Funding primarily comes from individual contributions, corporate sponsorships, grants, and foundations to sustain our mission. Thank you for considering Power2Endure as a resource within the LGBT+ community.
