Welcome to the LGBTQ Funders Directory, which provides information on funders of organizations and projects working with lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) communities. All of the groups included in the directory have provided financial support, of varying types, to LGBTQ programs. This Directory represents the most comprehensive listing of LGBTQ funders in the country. However, because grantmaking patterns often shift, the directory information should not be viewed as definitive.
