Our Story
The Gay and Lesbian Fund for Dallas was founded in 2000, inspired by a successful fundraising event for the Dallas Latino Cultural Center. This initiative united both gay and non-gay communities, leading to the establishment of a dedicated board of directors. In 2001, the Fund received 501(c)(3) status from the IRS, and since then, it has raised over $1.7 million to support local non-profits, celebrating the contributions of LGBTQ+ individuals and their allies.
