I hope you have all had a good week and that you are enjoying your Sunday.
I volunteer at the local LGBT organisation. It is called Lambda and apart from running a café, a group that do talks at local schools and an advice phone service, we do parties. Big parties. We actually do the biggest LGBT parties outside Copenhagen.
All these different groups and events, along with many more, was the reason for the honor that was bestowed upon us Thursday night. Lambda won the prize for Best Organisation at this years Axgil Awards, the Danish gay chamber of commerce yearly LGBT awards.
We were all overjoyed and very proud, and I had the honor of hosting our Valentines party the day after.
It was a great party, everyone was in a good mood (some more drunk than others) and the party went remarkably well with hardly any glitches.
I am very proud to be a part of the LGBT community here in Odense, and I am only happy to do a lot of hard work, when I see it grow into something as beautiful as these parties, that draw crowds from all over the country. I am especially proud, when a small, provincial organisation, through hard work, endless promotion and untiring volunteers, gets noticed by enough people that we can win such a prestigious award.
To all the hard working people that, through the years, have kept Lambda going: This is all you!
