Mission Statement
Our Mission Texas Pride Impact Funds inspires giving and investment to secure equitable opportunities that serve and enrich the lives of LGBTQ+ Texans for generations to come. Our Vision Texas Pride Impact Funds, as the leading progressive statewide LGBTQ+ community foundation, drives attention to the dynamic and diverse lives and experiences of LGBTQ+ people and addresses their needs and supports their dreams through a vast and active network of donors and organizations across the state. TPIF boldly supports transformational change and racial equity in Texas. TPIF’s long-term vision includes achieving $100.0 million in assets under management that, with donor-advised funds and annual fundraising, will support $6.0 million in annual grantmaking and $1.5 million in operating expenses by 2045.
About This Cause
Texas Pride Impact Funds is the community foundation for the LGBTQ+ people of Texas. Very few foundations will fund LGBTQ+ nonprofits and programs, therefore, we must support a wide variety of community needs. Please join us in our work to lift up community organizations and their leaders, especially those who are transgender and/or persons of color. Please join us to mobilize donors and funders, inspire giving, and actively secure our community's future for generations to come. What We Do Grants - Texas Pride Impact Funds' Grants Program seeks to fund proposed ideas, projects, and strategies from community organizations that work to enhance the lives of and address the needs of LGBTQ+ youth, adults, and families that are positively impacting local communities across Texas. Please see Grants section on our website for our current funding priorities and to learn more about our grant process. Community Needs - In 2017 TPIF conducted the first-ever, state-wide LGBTQ+ community needs assessment for the State of Texas. With a generous planning grant from Funders for LGBTQ Issues, TPIF contracted and collaborated with The University of Texas at Dallas to create, implement and produce IMPACT! Texas Needs Assessment (ITNA). Results from the IMPACT! Texas Needs Assessment were first revealed at a TPIF Austin Town Hall, held in the state capital on June 13, 2018. A series of community outreach events were then conducted across the state in 2018 and 2019. The full research report and our IMPACT! Texas Needs Assessment (ITNA) summary are available on our website. While the 2017 ITNA study was the first state-wide LGBTQ community needs assessment, plans are underway for TPIF's next research effort. Community Building - With our state-wide view of LGBTQ+ Texas, TPIF strives to fulfill a strategic role, giving voice to all perspectives in LGBTQ+ discourse by addressing issues of racism, sexism and gender normatism that negatively impact the Texas LGBTQ+ community and are considered threats to our community’s well-being and future.
