A little more than a year after launch, the Stonewall Fund at USF has surpassed the endowment minima with over $30,000 of contributions and matching funds. This allows the funds to be invested and the resulting financial returns on the investments will be used to provide needed relief to LGBTQIA2+ youth in need. Thank you to all of you that contributed to make this fund a reality.

The momentum to fund the Stonewall Fund at the University of South Florida has been inspiring! The fund balance has exceeded $12,500 a little more than half a year from the establishment of USF’s Stonewall Fund (including matching funds provided by the Stonewall Fund Incorporated). This brings the fund more than halfway towards the $25,000 endowment minima when the funds can be invested and start generating resources for grants to USF LGBTQ+ youth-in-need. Thank you to all that have contributed to date. To help us reach the endowment minima, make your contribution to USF at this link and take advantage of the Stonewall Fund’s matching funds.

The Stonewall Funds releases the Stonewall Fund Video depicting an all too familar story of two young men that lose the support of their parents after they learn that their son is gay. Tremendous thanks to Dr. Travis Svennson for writing, directing, and producing the short film.
