LGBT+ Futures Programme: Intersections Fund

by

We are very excited to announce a new small grants funding opportunity that opens to applications today (Monday 3rd February). Thanks to the generosity of an individual Donor, Consortium will be distributing a total pot of £20,000 in grants.

Applications will be open to LGBT+ non-profit groups, organisations and projects that support and improve the lives of LGBT+ people of faith, LGBT+ people of colour and LGBT+ women in recognition of the underrepresentation and higher levels of marginalisation and discrimination faced by these members of our communities.

Applications can be for any amount up to a maximum of £5,000 but it should be noted applications above £2,500 will be exceptional. We are keen to maximise this funding and fund as many viable projects as possible, so we expect the average grant amount awarded to be in the region of £500-£2,500.

Applications are now open and will close at 5pm on Monday 2nd March 2020. More details can be found here: www.consortium.lgbt/grantgiving/lgbt-futures-intersections-fund
