Qui sommes-nous
LBQ+ women in the Global South are among the most talented, innovative, and community-rooted leaders in the global movement—yet they remain the most underfunded in global philanthropy.
Without economic independence, many LBQ+ women face violence, instability, and forced dependence on unsafe systems.
LesbianGlobal is powering strategic investment, not charity.
When LBQ+ women gain access to income, capital, and opportunity, the return is lasting safety, autonomy, and community-wide impact.
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.
