Trusts and Foundations

Grants from trusts and foundations are a cornerstone of our funding, helping Just Like Us improve the lives of LGBT+ young people.

How trusts and foundations help

Charitable trusts and foundations have supported our work from the very beginning, enabling us to deliver our core programmes in schools and with our young LGBT+ Ambassadors. They have supported specific initiatives and new developments as well as funding our core programmes and operations.

We are always evolving new ways of working and thinking about how to improve our support for LGBT+ young people and amplify their voices. We would greatly value the input of our funding partners and others concerned about the future for LGBT+ young people. Trusts and foundations carry a great deal of insight and expertise, so we would love to hear from you.

Help us put the right support in place for LGBT+ young people across the UK so they can lead the change they want to see.

“We are delighted to support Just Like Us to grow their impact, and look forward to taking this journey together. Their approach and programmes empower LGBT+ young people to take action, by providing them with positive role models and support so they can build the skills, knowledge and confidence they need to make a difference.”

Kate Hitchcock, Grants Manager, Paul Hamlyn Foundation, which has helped us learn from and consolidate our programme for LGBT+ young volunteers over five years

LGBT+ young people need our support more than ever

In these increasingly difficult times, LGBT+ young people really need our support and demand for our programmes is growing. Please will you make a donation to Just Like Us today?

A small amount monthly may be more manageable and would help us commit to long-term projects.
