SAN DIEGO -- The next "Throw Down For A Cause" women's Jell-O wrestling fundraiser will be held Wednesday, July 18, at Bourbon Street to raise funds for The San Diego LGBT Community Center and Project Love Out Loud's youth services.

The event was created in 2009 by a group of friends and associates who wanted to do something to create a positive impact in their community. A committee was formed, and the group decided that supporting LGBT youth in San Diego was an issue they wanted to support.
