The LGBTQ+ Youth Scholarship Fund began in 2018 to support the academic success of low-income LGBTQ+ youth from the Los Angeles area attending a college, university or vocational school. Since 2018, over $60,000 in total scholarships have been awarded to LGBTQ+ students. Scholarship awards range from $1,000 to $5,000 depending on the social and economic situation of the applicant. Awardees receive their recognition at an annual scholarship ceremony in the month of April. This year's ceremony will be held on Saturday, April 8, 2023.
The scholarship fund is supported by the heartfelt donations by supporters, corporations and foundations. You can support the scholarship fund and the academic success of queer and trans students with a donation here.
