GLBT Community Projects Fund

In collaboration with the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force in Washington, D. C. , Dade Community Foundation serves as a bridge to the Miami-Dade community, providing a vehicle for local grant making to gay and lesbian organizations. The GLBT Community Project Fund was created through an agreement between the NGLTF and the Gay and Lesbian Foundation of South Florida. Dade Community Foundation is featured predominantly in this agreement. Proceeds from two events. Annual Recognition Dinner and Winter Party Festival, provide support to the GLBT Community Project Fund.

The GLBT Community Projects Fund is a special funding initiative of Dade Community Foundation, which is staffed and managed by the Foundation with the leadership of a community Advisory Committee. The Fund's purpose is to advance education and public awareness with respect to GLBT issues and to support the local GLBT community. The Foundation annually considers proposals for GLBT Community Projects Fund Programs & Projects Grants that build community and address current and emerging needs within the current funding priorities for the initiative, which are outlined in each year's guidelines.
