Qui sommes-nous
LesbianGlobal is the only US-based organization focused exclusively on unleashing the economic power of LBQ+ women in underdeveloped countries. We establish economic empowerment funds that provide seed funding to LBQ+ women social entrepreneurs who become part of a leadership community with mentoring and infrastructure support. The LBQ+ women leaders share their stories across platforms to inspire others and leverage the impact of their work.
LesbianGlobal is powering strategic investment, not charity.
Découvrez notre impact
Economic power creates wider change.
LBQ+ women who become entrepreneurs, workers, and community leaders gain visibility and influence that can challenge discrimination and criminalizing systems. In our partners’ work in Nigeria, women shared that economic independence could have helped them avoid forced marriages and abuse.
Who We Fund
LesbianGlobal funds lesbian, bisexual, and queer (LBQ+) women in the Global South who are leading economic, social, and community-based initiatives.
This includes:
-
Cisgender and transgender women who identify as lesbians
-
LBQ+ women entrepreneurs, organizers, and social entrepreneurs (“actipreneurs”)
-
LBQ+ Women-led businesses, collectives, and grassroots initiatives
-
Community-rooted leaders building economic opportunity and resilience
We recognize that trans women who identify as lesbians face overlapping forms of economic exclusion, discrimination, and violence. Our funding approach is intentionally inclusive of their leadership, lived experience, and economic realities.
Why Economic Empowerment
Chaque don à LesbianGlobal est directement reversé à des initiatives qui soutiennent et autonomisent les femmes LBQ+, en particulier celles des pays du Sud. Certains de nos partenaires bénéficiaires sont de grandes organisations, mais nos financements sont toujours dirigés vers des programmes spécifiques qui bénéficient directement aux communautés de femmes LBQ+.
Cela garantit que les ressources parviennent aux personnes qui en ont le plus besoin, contribuant ainsi à bâtir un mouvement de changement plus fort, plus visible et plus connecté.
