About Services and Advocacy for Gay Lesbian Bisexual and Transgender Elders
Services and Advocacy for Gay Lesbian Bisexual and Transgender Elders Inc centers its grantmaking on LGBTQ+ aging, with a mix of direct services, advocacy, education, and supportive services for older adults. The largest recent awards in the data show how the foundation often operates through contractual pass-through funding: $82,290 to the Southeast Asia Resource Action Center and $51,500 to the American Society on Aging, both in 2023. Those grants sit alongside support for organizations serving Black, Hispanic, Asian Pacific Islander, and Native communities, reflecting a broad older-adult service network rather than a single local program. The foundation’s stated purpose is to reach as many LGBTQ+ people as possible and to fight for fair and equal treatment as they age. That mission appears in grants to national aging and civil-rights-oriented groups, as well as to community-based organizations. Recent awards also include ongoing support for groups such as the National Caucus and Center on Black Aging, the National Hispanic Council on Aging, and the National Asian Pacific Center on Aging. Across the recent list, it gives both contribution grants and contractual pass-through awards, with amounts ranging from small operating-style grants to larger administered awards.
