We Believe This Can Change
Creating the future we want to see
The path to TGNC liberation must include providing direct resourcing to TGNC organizations who are working within their own communities. Those closest to the problem are closest to the solution.
TGNC communities have the wisdom, lived experience, and tenacity to solve the problems our communities face. We need to be trusted with the resources we need to lead these efforts.

Transgender Strategy Fund
TSC's grant making prioritizes Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) TGNC-led efforts by recognizing the roles that anti-blackness, racism, and misogyny play in perpetuating social inequities. We are honored to work side-by-side with our donor partners to ensure that funds are reaching people in our communities.
Part of our unique contribution to how we partner with TGNC-led organizations is TSC's ability to offer capacity building at no cost to all grantees. This capacity building is based on what the organization believes will be most helpful to their success including but not limited to executive coaching, communications capacity, grant writing and much more.
