    Melania Trump is set to host a fundraiser for the Log Cabin Republicans in her residence at Trump Tower in New York next month — her second for the group during the 2024 campaign.

    The former first lady is listed as the headliner of a July 8 for “ the nation’s largest Republican organization dedicated to representing LGBT conservatives and allies ,” according to a copy of the invitation obtained by POLITICO.

    She held another event for Log Cabin Republicans in April at Mar-a-Lago , the Palm Beach, Florida club, where she lives with former President Donald Trump.

    Trump campaign representatives did not immediately respond to a request for comment.



    But the famously private Trump has kept a low profile throughout her husband’s third presidential campaign, never speaking publicly about any of his legal troubles. She has generally steered clear of political events, though there have been a few exceptions.

    In April, she attended a fundraiser for her husband held at the South Florida home of investor John Paulson. In March, the Slovenian-born former first lady joined a meeting at Mar-a-Lago with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and the former president.

    The co-host for the committee includes Richard Grenell, who was acting director of national intelligence during the Trump administration, as well as Bryan Eure and Bill White and Nazee and Joseph Moinian. Investor Hannah Buchan will host a reception after the Melania Trump event, according to the invitation.

    Attendees are being asked to contribute up to $100,000. The proceeds are to benefit the group’s “Road to Victory” program, which is aimed at turning out voters for Trump and other Republicans.


    CORRECTION: A previous version of this report misstated where Melania Trump was born. She was born in Slovenia.
