My organization is interested in providing resources for LGBTQIA+ folks who have been disproportionately impacted. What can I do?
Pfund Foundation awards scholarships for individuals in our community who have a need. Please contact development director Aaron Zimmerman at [email protected] for more details.
I know that Pfund makes individual scholarships available and I want to donate. Can I restrict my funding to a prioritized grantee?
To ensure we move resources as efficiently as possible and respond to needs of communities most impacted, we are not considering restricted donations at this time.
What should I expect when getting tested for COVID?
I am in need of financial help because of the COVID crisis. Where can I find assistance?
