Funding theme: Shelter. PlanetRomeo Foundation funds initiatives that provide (temporary) basic Shelter facilities for LGBTQIA+ people, especially in those countries and regions where their safety and wellbeing is most at risk. These can include sleeping facilities, and/or shelter and support during the day or specific time slots. Activities taking place in or attached to the shelter, that further support LGBTQIA+ people making use of the shelter, can be eligible too.

A Theory of Change helps an organization move from just doing activities, to having a clear view on how your activities contribute to the change you wish to see in the world. The Theory of Change of Planet Romeo Foundation visualizes our ambition and the strategy to achieve change. It is a simplified model of all the essential elements needed to realize our long-term objective: contributing to LGBTQIA+ safety and equality worldwide.

The image below shows our Theory Of Change: to ultimately achieve the desired impact goals of LGBTQIA+ safety and equality, we actively work to achieve certain outcomes such as mental health, legal rights and decolonization. We aim to achieve these outcomes through our activities and outputs: (1) Project funding within our three thematic areas, (2) Communicating about our partners' projects, and (3) Serving as a stepping stone for further funding. We believe this will create a "flywheel" effect (in the middle of the image), where stronger communities and movements continue to empower themselves and others. By listening and learning from our global partners, we leverage their insights for fundraising, further supporting our collective worldwide LGBTQIA+ movements for equal rights and opportunities.

PlanetRomeo Foundation funds emerging, grassroots LGBTQIA+ organizations. As shown in our Theory of Change, we aim to fund projects that have a lasting impact on LGBTQIA+ communities. Our funding is intended to be a stepping stone for further funding for new initiatives. Towards our donors, our funded partners and the international LGBTQIA+ communities, we have a responsibility to make sure the projects we fund have positive effects for the organizations we fund, the communities they serve and their society at large.

Over 2023, our partners reported to have involved a total of 13.037 people: these were LGBTQIA+ people and communities, transgender people, LBTQ+ womxn, q***r people living with disabilities, LGBTQIA+ victims and survivors of trafficking and other forms of modern-day slavery, non-binary people, older LGBTQIA+ persons and many more.

Overall, the feedback for our Foundation indicated a strong desire for ongoing support, capacity building, networking opportunities, and advocacy efforts to enhance the impact and sustainability of projects aimed at supporting LGBTQIA+ communities. The additional effort we can do as a Foundation run by 6 volunteers is limited. We do not have the capacity to offer support services or organize workshops or webinars. We list the feedback here as we hope it might inspire other funders.
We will continue to search for collaborations with other funds to be able to offer our worldwide LGBTQIA+ community what is needed. PlanetRomeo Foundation offers one-time grants, as our mission is to be a stepping stone for new, emerging initiatives. We recognize the large need for further funding, and we therefore now offer every partner whose Evaluation Form has been approved to receive a signed Letter of Recommendation. We hope this will enable our partners to find further funding elsewhere.
