Become a Member of the Gay & Lesbian Fund for Dallas!  Help support GLFD as it continues to grow and provide greater visibility to the philanthropic commitment and contributions of the LGBTQ+ community and our allies to Dallas area non-profits.

 

Since 2001, GLFD has funded non-gay-focused charities in Dallas that show their commitment to equality and diversity by including sexual orientation (and more recently including gender identity) in their employment nondiscrimination policies.  Fund recipients must also must publicly acknowledge Gay & Lesbian Fund for Dallas as the source of the donation.

  

GLFD is committed to passing through 100 percent of all of your charitable giving to our Bundling Allies, as well as providing you with networking and social events and informative e-newsletters about events and giving opportunities.  Only by becoming a member of GLFD (in addition to your generous contributions to our Bundling Allies and special event recipients) can you support GLFD’s efforts to maintain a high pass-through rate to our beneficiaries.  Your membership dollars pay for those necessary overhead items such as credit card processing, internet fees, and print materials, as well as events for our members.

As a 501(c)3 charity, all membership donations are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law.
