San Diego LGBT Pride Fund

To foster pride in and respect for the Lesbian-Gay-Bisexual-Transgender community, the Foundation for Change has joined with San Diego LGBT Pride to create a grants pool of $27,000 for LGBT organizations. The intent of the fund is to support grassroots groups working with under-served lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender populations in San Diego and Tijuana.
