Seattle’s LGBTQIA+ community is fortunate to have a number of nonprofits and grassroots organizations advocating in support of diversity, inclusivity, and equal human rights. We believe in them! Since we launched our grants program in 2017, we’ve awarded more than $500,000 in grants and sponsorships to many of them—because we can do more good when we do it together.
In addition, we provide free Pride Parade registrations to all small LGBTQIA+ non-profit organizations each year, prioritize free events, and collaborate with partners to host internships, art activations, and events.
Grants for the funding cycle that ended May 31, 2024 will be awarded in July; applications will not be accepted for grants between June 1, 2024 and the end of the calendar year. In the meantime, if you have questions, please feel free to reach out to us at Grants@SeattlePride.org.

Grants are typically used for an organization's ongoing work, such as covering the cost of a position to carry out the mission of the organization. Grants also come with reporting requirements.
Sponsorships tend to be event-specific, such as helping pay for some of an event costs in return for recognition in the program.
Of course!
Grants and sponsorship are awarded quarterly in March, July, Sept, and December, depending on which cycle you submitted your application.
Absolutely! Reporting requirements and paperwork should never be a barrier to receiving much-needed funds. Please reach out to Seattle Pride at Grants@SeattlePride.org for support!
