Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) May 22, 2009 -- LegalOut, a provider of affordable, efficient online legal document preparation tools for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) community, has announced that it will donate a percentage of profits from its document preparation membership subscriptions to Point Foundation, a non-profit organization that offers an academic scholarship program for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender college students who are marginalized due to sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression.

"We are proud to support Point Foundation," said LegalOut's President Lindalisa Severo.

What better way to cultivate the next generation of LGBT leaders than to support Point."
