The Plus Collective

The Plus Collective – formerly known as the Charlotte Lesbian and Gay Fund – is a giving program and foundation that awards grants to organizations that support the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer community in the Charlotte region, as well as partners with community allies.

Whether you wish to be involved with grantmaking decisions, or simply want to support the fund with a generous donation, your gift helps provide funding to nonprofits that support the local LGBTQ+ community.
