Madonna paid a visit to a homeless LGBT
youth center in New York City during the Thanksgiving holiday.
The 58-year-old pop icon visited
Brooklyn's Ali Forney Center on Thursday.
“Had so much fun sharing Thanksgiving
at the Ali Forney Center in Brooklyn!” Madonna wrote in the caption
of an Instagram photo of herself surrounded by more than a dozen
teens.
She also praised the center's work.
“This center protects LGBT Youth from
the harms of homelessness and empowers them to reclaim their lives.
Each year the Ali Forney Center provides care for over 1,200 youth
who are rejected by their family due to their LGBT identity. AFC
provides these youth with tools they need to become independent and
more importantly, AFC provides these youth with the love and support
they are denied by their families. Because everyone deserves to be
loved and everyone deserves a home,” she added.
