Member Opportunity: Funding Queerly Giving Circle Requests Grant Proposals from Small LGBTQI Groups
For many of our movement’s state-based organizations, funding is always stretched too thin.
Groups continue to make progress, but there is always more work to be done and more support that can be provided.
Luckily, the Astraea Lesbian Foundation for Justice has announced a funding opportunity for many of our members.
Astraea is requesting proposals for the second year of the Funding Queerly Giving Circle. The Funding Queerly Giving Circle is a group of donors under 40 that was launched at Resource Generation's Making Money Make Change in 2012. Funding Queerly is partnering with Astraea, with support from Bolder Giving, to mobilize financial resources in support of organizing work by and for marginalized lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex (LGBTQI) communities.
Small LGBTQI community organizing groups (with budgets of $250,000 or less) led by and for communities of color, indigenous communities, low-income communities, and/or rural communities are especially encouraged to apply. The grants are for $10,000 to be put toward your organization's general operating support.
The deadline for proposals is Friday, November 14, 2014.
