PFund Foundation builds community in everything we do. We come together to raise money, come together to give it out and we connect our vibrant LGBT and allied communities together to celebrate social change impact in the Upper Midwest! Our legacy of building community, developing leaders and inspiring giving has contr…ibuted to transforming our region. PFund’s Cabaret 2014 will be one of a kind to celebrate the past year, and raise dollars to continue creating a more just and equitable Upper Midwest for LGBT people.

This year’s occasion will be held at Mill City Nights featuring a vintage jazz band called Belle Amour.

We will honor Charles Rounds and Mark Hiemenz for their philanthropic work in the LGBT community.

PFund’s commitment to long-lasting social change has generated visibility, reduced isolation and turned your dollars into social change.

DameEdna-300x300

[sws_yellow_box box_size=”100″] Dame Edna at Camp [/sws_yellow_box]

Dame Edna Everage is probably the most gifted and talented woman in the world today: housewife, investigative journalist, social anthropologist, talk show host, swami, childrens book illustrator, spin doctor, Megastar, and Icon. With Olivia Newton-John, Kylie Minogue and Nicole Kidman, she is one of a remarkable succession of female stars to emerge from Australia.
When Michael Walters first donned the “wisteria” coif and rhinestone glasses in early 2001, he never dreamed he would still be performing the Character today – not to mention gaining the blessing of Dame Edna’s original creator, Barry Humphries or having the honor of appearing with Mr. Humphries at a special event on his Birthday in 2010. Walters says he was equally surprised when he discovered that producers all over the world would be eager to present his impeccable impersonation.
