IMPACT - advancing lgbtqi rights
To create a world where LGBTQI people can live their lives freely and openly, we need a properly funded global LGBTQI movement that can advocate on behalf of our community. With the right resources, our movement can help eliminate discriminatory laws, policies and practices, change attitudes and create safe spaces in places where LGBTQI people and identities are not accepted.
In the Global South and East in particular, LGBTQI activists’ efforts are hampered by substantial legal and practical barriers to fundraising, beyond those experienced elsewhere. Pooling donations from our community and allies, GiveOut are building a safe, reliable source of funding especially for groups in these regions. We identify pioneering groups to support through a rigorous process of consultation, due diligence and vetting, guided by our Grant-making Advisory Panel and governed by our Board of Trustees.
Unfortunately, we are not currently able to accept unsolicited proposals for funding.
Latest Annual Impact Report
Our Annual Impact Report includes updates on how our community has supported courageous activists promoting lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer and intersex (LGBTQI) human rights and equality across the globe. It also introduces GiveOut’s existing and new grant partners for 2022.
Recognising the diversity and complexity of the movement, we strive to make our portfolio of grant partners as representative of the global movement as a whole, in terms of geography, thematic focus and community served. Each funding round integrates a more diverse set of grant partners than the last. We provide support at all levels of the global movement, but prioritise funding where it is needed most. We are incredibly proud of the progress we have made so far. In just four years, our supporters have provided over £1.2 million in new funding to the LGBTQI movement globally and now support over 37 brilliant organisations across six continents.
