Why the Name?
When most people read the name Ties Like Me! they think it means a business necktie that goes with a suit. Ties Like Me! is actually a play on words. Individuals in the LGBTQ+ community are all connected by a common TIE, our sexual orientation. Hence, Ties Like Me! intentions are to bring our community together due to our common tie. As seen in our logo, there is a global dimension because our Ties stretch far across the earth. Of course, the name also works well because this is a professional group and having that unintentionally stated in the name goes along with our purpose of a business professional setting. Ties Like Me! is proud to bring our community together in order to make it a better world for everyone!
