About us
Our Fund is an autonomous, publicly supported, independent philanthropic institution with a mission of promoting a culture of philanthropy by uniting donors with organizations supporting the LGBT community. Our long term goal is to build permanent, named Funds established by many donors to carry out their charitable interests, primarily for the benefit of the South Florida LGBT community. We will play a key role in identifying and solving community problems by working with individuals, families, attorneys and estate and financial planners to design gift plans tailored to meet diverse economic situations, maximizing the benefit donors receive from the contributions as well as the impact of their philanthropic dollars.

Thank you for your kind words. We at The Our Fund Foundation are proud to support the impactful work of Transinclusive Group and your incredible partners at Arianna's Center, The McKenzie Project, Inc, TransSOCIAL, Inc., and SunServe. Your dedication to empowering the Transgender community in South Florida is truly needed, and we are committed to standing by your side, especially in these challenging times. Together, we will continue to uplift all of our LGBTQ+ siblings.
A heartfelt thank you goes out to The Our Fund Foundation, which has provided Transinclusive Group with a generous grant as part of their #Transgender Support Initiative. Along with this powerful support of our Trans-led work, The Our Fund Foundation has also poured into the efforts of our partners at Arianna's Center, The McKenzie Project, Inc, TransSOCIAL, Inc., and SunServe. This funding, along with their commitment to providing capacity building support, is crucial for our mission of empowering our transgender siblings in #SouthFlorida, particularly at a time when our #LGBTQ+ community continues to come under increasing threat. Responding to these dangers and the diverse needs of those we serve requires intentional action, and we're so appreciative to have the long-time support of The Our Fund Foundation as we do this important work. 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈

We're proud to support the Master Chorale of South Florida's "Considering Matthew Shepard" concert. This oratorio weaves together Matthew's words, interviews, news stories, and poetry to honor his legacy. This event is meaningful to us as the Master Chorale was a 2023 Arts & Culture grant recipient, and our CFO, Mark Blaylock, will be singing. Sharing history is crucial to prevent its repetition. Matthew Shepard's life and tragic death have profoundly impacted the LGBTQ community and the entire country. Tickets: https://lnkd.in/eGFa26BF

"No one left behind: equality, freedom, and justice for all." Today, we celebrate the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia. Members of the LGBTQ+ community still face significant discrimination, hatred, and fear of violence. It's crucial that we raise our voices to support our community and stand together in solidarity to ensure that everyone can thrive.
