At LGBT Tech, we work at the intersection of technology and the LGBTQ+ community through advocacy, grants, research, and education. We're bridging the digital divide and expanding opportunity so LGBTQ+ people have the tools and resources to thrive in a tech-driven world.
Thus far, we have distributed over $758,000Â in technology and cash grants to LGBTQ+ centers and individuals who might otherwise be disconnected, and awarded over $191,000Â to LGBTQ+ students and professionals pursuing STEAM careers.
YOUR SUPPORT MAKES THIS POSSIBLE!
Â
We’ve expanded access to devices, digital tools, and safer online spaces for community members who need them most, while offering mentorship, training, and programming that open doors to STEAM pathways and tech careers all thanks to the support of people like you!
Access to technology isn’t a luxury, it’s a lifeline. For LGBTQ+ individuals, especially youth and those in underserved communities, it can mean safety, education, connection, and opportunity. As you see in the video below, created with the Creative Impact Lab and Wide Angle Youth Media, these examples showcase why access to technology is essential and how amplifying LGBTQ+ voices drives real, lasting change.
