Mission: To provide grant support to nonprofit organizations in the Greater Kansas City area, to assist them with the delivery of programs and services of special need, concern, or value to individuals who identify as LGBTQ+.

To be the premiere funding source for LGBTQ+ led and LGBTQ+ serving nonprofits in the Greater Kansas City Area.

A core component of our work, the value of equity seeks to address historical and systemic imbalance by giving people what they need to realize a shared outcome. We strive towards establishing a level playing field and amplifying voices in the LGBTQ+ community that have traditionally been silenced and under-supported.

We make a long-term commitment to support the LGBTQ+ community and ensure that funds continue to flow beyond our singular engagement. We will take the road of building upon successes of the past and forging new paths with a strong and steady presence.

We endeavor to build bridges between different sectors of the community through clear communication, transparency, and grace. We will support work internally and externally that leads to authentic connection and relationship building.

We seek to become a model for collaboration within the LGBTQ+ community. We will create a space that brings different voices and lived experiences to the same table; a space led by the community, for the community. We support open and honest environments that fuel inclusiveness and capitalize on the effectiveness of working together.

The Urban Education Research Center at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, in collaboration with the Pride Charitable Fund, is proud to announce the LGBTQ+ Needs Assessment Survey. This initiative's aim is to comprehensively identify the current needs, strengths, and resources of the LGBTQ+ community in the Kansas City metropolitan area. The results of the project will be available for community members and will result in current, actionable data that can inform changes in the local community.

Nonprofit organizations dedicated to uplifting and empowering the LGBTQ+ community in Greater Kansas City are invited to apply for funding from the Pride Charitable Fund. This year, the Fund will award four grants of $5,000 each to strengthen and sustain LGBTQ+ serving and LGBTQ+ led nonprofits, with a focus on advancing health, safety, belonging, and opportunity for LGBTQ+ individuals throughout the KC region.
