The mission of the Community Care Fund is to support and empower queer and trans communities through collective efforts aimed at addressing threats, harms, needs, hopes, and healing. Its focus is on fostering joy, rest, pleasure, and healing, crucial for sustaining and transforming these communities. The fund deeply values community care as a response to isolation, exploitation, and oppression, thereby nurturing queer and trans futures.
The Pride Foundation offers over 50 scholarships with a single application process, aiming to promote leadership and diversity in the LGBTQ community. These scholarships are designed for students of varying backgrounds and educational interests, including those who ally with or are questioning their LGBTQ status. The program's priorities include supporting LGBTQ+ students who demonstrate a commitment to community well-being, face educational access barriers due to systemic discrimination (emphasizing support for marginalized groups like BIPOC, trans, non-binary, disabled, immigrants, non-traditionally aged students, and those from rural areas or experiencing poverty), and show financial need. Specific scholarships, like the Friends of Alan Turing Scholarship for LGBTQ and ally students in STEM fields, have criteria based on students' majors, backgrounds, or other factors, aligning with broader programmatic priorities.
