We're excited to be a recipient of a 2026 Cliff Todd Endowment Grant from JustFundKY! In collaboration with the Faulkner Morgan Archive, we'll be producing 50 yards signs to celebrate the history of LGBTQIA+ Kentuckians! These yard signs will be featured at this year's Lexington Pride Festival. And, they'll be available for use by other pride organizations around the state!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: May 1, 2026

JustFundKY Awards Over $95,000 to LGBTQ Initiatives Across Kentucky Amid Challenging Climate

At a time when LGBTQ+ communities across Kentucky are navigating an increasingly difficult political and social landscape, we are investing directly in resilience, visibility, and joy.

Today, we announce the recipients of our 2026 Cliff Todd Endowment grants, awarding $95,461 to community-driven projects spanning the Commonwealth, from Pikeville to Paducah. This year’s cohort reflects both urgency and innovation, with organizations adapting creatively to ensure LGBTQ+ Kentuckians remain seen, supported, and celebrated.

Even in challenging times, these organizations are finding ways to build connection, tell stories, and create spaces where people feel safe and valued. This work is not only necessary, it is transformative.

As a $2.4 million endowment, we have invested $748,000 in 94 organizations since 2011, reaching every county in Kentucky. We support educational and community-based initiatives that raise awareness, foster belonging, and advance equity for LGBTQ people statewide.

We remain committed to building a Kentucky where all people, regardless of identity, can live openly, safely, and with dignity.
