Since the days of Stonewall, we have been transforming lives in LGBTQ+ communities through excellent comprehensive care, provided free of judgment and regardless of ability to pay. In addition, we are continuously pioneering research, advocacy and education to drive positive change around the world, because we believe healthcare is a human right.

  • Conduct wealth screenings and donor analysis to identify prospects for mid-level ($5k–$10k) or major giving ($10k+).

  • Create meaningful donor touchpoints throughout the year to deepen engagement.

Data Analysis & Reporting
