We believe the greater Kalamazoo community draws its spirit, vitality and character from the increasingly diverse mix of people who are part of it. We are committed to making life better for all, which is why the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Questioning Equality Fund was created.

Our LGBTQ Equality Fund has four priorities:

In particular, it supports programs that facilitate leadership development, and programs that impact LGBTQ people of color, youths and families; transgender people; and multiple generations.
