It was announced earlier today that Bea Arthur has left $300,000 from her estate to The Ali Forney Center, an organization that offers housing, food, clothing and much more to LGBT homeless youth here in NYC. Bea didn't just believe in this cause in posthumously though, she actually did a free performance of her Broadway show for the center about four years ago, which I went to, even though I had seen the show already. She was brilliant, of course, and clearly it was a worth cause, too.
She isn't the only giver in these hard times, however. It should be noted that earlier today I gave 30 cents to the guy who holds the door open at the bodega...
