I am looking for early-stage funding to start a project for the betterment of the Transgender’s Community. Kindly suggest where and how to get funding for my project.

Hi there,  you can apply to International Trans Fund’s 5th Grant Cycle for a chance to get seed and thrive funding for your project related to transgender development.

The International Trans Fund (ITF) warmly welcomes applications from trans-led organizations with budgets below $150,000 USD based in any region of the world.

This year the ITF is introducing two grant types:

• SEED Grant (1-year) The SEED grant is 1-year general support and/or project grant for trans-led organizations that have never been funded by the ITF, or that prefer to apply for this grant instead of the THRIVE Grant. Grants range from $10,000 to $30,000 USD/year.
• THRIVE Grant (2-year) The THRIVE grant is a 2-year general support grant ONLY for trans-led organizations that have been previously funded by the ITF and are in good standing. Grants range from $20,000 to $40,000 USD/year (for a total of $40,000-$80,000 USD).

Priorities

The ITF has priorities for grantmaking:

• Fund a diversity of organizations, including different regions, languages, gender identities, strategies, and issues.
• Prioritize Trans communities facing greater levels of marginalization (e.g. racism, classism, ageism, ableism, misogyny and so on).
• Support a trans-led organization whose work is intersectional and contributes to social justice, movement building, and the liberation of Tran’s people.
