Heather Martin
Long Island Gay and Lesbian Youth (LIGALY) Development Coordinator Heather Martin is making things happen behind the scenes. As half of the two-person team behind the non-profit organization, she raised over $80,000 at last year’s Equality Awards Gala, which will help LIGALY continue to provide education, advocacy and social support services to Long Island’s LGBT youth. “I think it’s important for LGBT people to find strength in each other and build common ground,” says Martin, “because little is accomplished without unity.” Martin is currently planning On The Bay, a big Hamptons fundraiser scheduled for this summer, and waiting for same-sex marriage to become legal in New York so that she can have her dream wedding at The Museum of Natural History. –MF
