Lesbian Bisexual and Queer Grantmaker Resources

LESBIAN, BISEXUAL, QUEER WOMEN GRANTMAKER RESOURCES

This page is intended to provide Lesbian, Bisexual, Queer Women resources for grantmakers. This funding focus area is understood to include all people who identify as women with marginalized sexualities, including women who are Intersex, Trans, and Cisgender. As our Global Resources Report demonstrates, LBQ activists are often forgotten and underfunded by LGBTQI donors.

Mama Cash and Astraea share some of the brilliant visions of freedom that LBQ activists are creating around the world. LBQ Movement Highlights introduces some of LBQ women’s priorities, strategies, and needs to create the future they envision.
