The Albuquerque PRIDE Circle will serve the LGBTQIA+ community in the greater Albuquerque four-county area. Although Albuquerque has a deep history of queer activism, culture, and life, there are limited funding opportunities available for services directed to the LGBTQIA+ population. Nonprofits must allocate significant resources to the annual cycle of raising funds, asking for donations, and applying for grants. The PRIDE Circle will aim to combat that resource drain by establishing a funding source focused on Albuquerque organizations that specifically and intentionally provide services to the city's LGBTQIA+ community. The PRIDE Circle will also focus on providing an accessible and inclusive space for members and allies of the community to gather and connect.
Funds given at this time will help to seed a permanent endowment, which will distribute into the community annually and build into a resource that serves the city and its LGBTQIA+ residents in perpetuity.
You will also be asked to complete a short application to formalize your membership. After making your contribution, please take 5 minutes to complete your
