Grantmakers United for Trans Communities

#GUTCPledge

San Diego Pride is proud to be an inaugural signatory of the GUTC Pledge as we look to do more for Transgender communities in the United States.

Did you know that for every $100 award by U.S. foundations, that only 3 cents goes to transgender communities? That is why we’re committed to changing that and doing more for trans communities.

As an inaugural GUTC Pledge signatory committed to improving the well-being of trans communities, we pledge to participate in trainings and professional development opportunities focused on supporting trans communities; improve our recruitment and retention of trans and gender non-conforming staff and board members; increase our grantmaking for trans communities, with a commitment to trans-led organizations; and publicly express our support for and solidarity with trans communities.
