Fundraising & Grant Writing Support (Q+ Collective)

Volunteer for a startup supporting the safe growth of queer & trans-led organizations ��️‍��

Q+ Collective
We provide consulting, training, and capacity-building to help queer and trans-led organizations grow safely.

Q+ Collective addresses the systemic barriers faced by queer and trans leaders, which include underfunded organizations, discriminatory policies, and a lack of affirming leadership infrastructure. These structural inequities, particularly for those at the intersections of race and class, limit their access to funding, resources, and influence, ultimately weakening community power and representation in decision-making spaces.

The solution is a consulting and capacity-building hub led by and for queer and trans people. Q+ Collective provides operational support, risk assessment, and strategic guidance to ensure queer-led businesses and nonprofits can grow safely and sustainably. The core model combines: Consulting and coaching for small queer-owned businesses; Organizational strategy to help larger nonprofits strengthen community engagement; and Training and advocacy to create safer, more inclusive environments. Their approach centers joy, safety, and collective care, empowering queer and trans leaders to not only survive but thrive and maximize their impact.
