Queer Stability Fund - Quarterly Giving Circle Event

January 9, 2026 • 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Alfred’s Café • Tacoma, WA

Join us for an evening of community, connection, and collective impact as the Queer Stability Fund hosts its quarterly in-person giving event at Alfred’s Café, a proudly gay-owned business in the heart of Tacoma.

This event brings together LGBTQ+ community members and allies to nominate and award funding to a local LGBTQ+ business or individual making a meaningful difference in the South Sound. Funding amounts depend on membership contributions and can reach up to $10,000, with current projections between $1,000–$2,500.

• Membership: $100 per quarter. Open to all.
• Voting: Voting rights are held by LGBTQI2S+ members of the Queer Stability Fund.
• Nominations: Attendees are encouraged to arrive prepared to nominate a local LGBTQ+ business or individual and briefly speak about why they should receive the award.
• Award Funding: Pooled member contributions are awarded at the end of the event. Becoming a member before or during the event increases the collective fund. Awardees must be an entity. Additional documentation like tax ID verification and other documents will be required in order to receive funds from Queer Stability Fund. In the event the primary winner does not qualify for the payout, the next placed voting awardee will be contacted. (Join the Queer Stability Fund via the GTCF link on the Queer Stability website.

6:00–7:00 PM – Arrival, networking, food and nominations
7:00 PM – Four nominations drawn at random

As we gather in this affirming space, we encourage guests to support Alfred’s Café by purchasing dinner, snacks, or beverages during the event.

This event is all about queer empowerment, economic opportunity, and building a thriving local ecosystem through intentional, community-driven giving. Whether you’re nominating, joining as a member, or attending to learn more, your presence strengthens our collective impact.

We can’t wait to see you there!
