FUNDING TYPE

Grant

CAN YOU GET THIS?

You need to be an LGBTQIA+ nonprofit or community organization serving the NYC tri-state area.

NYC Pride funds organizations providing services, programming, or advocacy for LGBTQIA+ populations locally. The Community Grants track is specifically for groups willing to have members volunteer at NYC Pride events as a condition of funding.

YOUR REAL ODDS

The 2026 Pride Gives Back cycle awarded $75,000 across 11 grantees, averaging roughly $6,800 each.

The program has existed since 1984 and distributed over $25 million total, but the annual pool is limited and competition among NYC-area LGBTQIA+ organizations is real. The database lists a $10,000 grant amount, which aligns with the top end of recent awards.

WHAT IT TAKES

Confirm eligibility — LGBTQIA+-serving nonprofit in the NYC tri-state area — 1–2 hours
Prepare application materials and organization documentation — 1–2 weeks
Submit application before the annual deadline — 1 day

WORTH KNOWING

The Community Grants track explicitly requires your members or volunteers to perform specific functions at NYC Pride events — this is a condition of receiving the money, not just a preference, so budget for that commitment when applying.
