Mission Statement
Point Foundation supports the educational aspirations of LGBTQ+ and ally students to become impactful leaders in their lives, careers, and communities.
About This Cause
Since 2001, Point has worked to help college students access and succeed in higher education through scholarship financing, leadership development, mentorship, and community support. In 21 years, Point has awarded LGBTQ+ and ally students a total of $50 million. This makes Point the nation’s largest scholarship-granting organization for LGBTQ+ and ally students. Point alumni include elected officials, doctors, scientists, filmmakers, authors, lawyers, academics, business professionals, and entrepreneurs. Point's work is vital because the high cost of postsecondary education often puts the students' dreams out of reach. Also, representation and a place at the table for LGBTQ+ people can often be challenging without additional support from allies and organizations like Point. We ensure that LGBTQ+ and ally students get the financial and program support they need to access and succeed in achieving their goals. Point Foundation received a four-star ranking for our excellence from Charity Navigator and a platinum ranking from Candid's GuideStar. Point's top-level ranking on both platforms is thanks to our transparency, leadership, financial accountability, culture, and impact.
